    I'm fascinated by the potential architecture that could be built with 0.6% atmosphere pressures and 38% gravity.
    200 stories high? Cantilevered for half a mile? Curves that would be simply not possible under 1g.
    Something I don't see in Scifi films really taken to the limit.

    • @Spectification

      How about 500 yard long cantilever portions of a building.
      Bridges spanning unheard of gaps.
      The wind on Mars would need somewhere near 300mph to equal a 20mph breeze on earth. Wind isn't an issue. But in terms of load baring capacity, all your materials just got nearly a 300% increase vs their earth ratings.
      I'd call that a big deal for any creative engineer that wants to work with it.

      All of which was pretty obvious from the get go. The first guys going to Mars will make their best Tuna in the can impression? No shit. First colonists on a barren, irradiated rock are going to have it rough? Yeah, no surprise there either. Terraforming is technically possible, but very ressource and time intensive?

If it was separating what they've done recently from what they've done in their past, and have since acknowledged and reflected on, it would be an admirable quality. In this case, since they happened near *concurrently* , have evidence supporting it occurred, and continues to be unacknowledged, it's just odd.

You can get more food by fishing, and can treat seawater to make it drinkable. You can also turn around and go back if necessary.

Filling an enclosed stadium-sized space with grass and trees and oxygen is totally do-able in fairly short order. A handful have even been built on earth to varying degrees of success. (Mostly because they’re usually built and run by drugged out tenured university professors, not people whose lives depend on them functioning)
    They’d just need the occasional sharing of the local pathogens to ensure getting a visit from the biodome next door doesn’t result in total ecological collapse and you’ve got a bunch of little earth like city-sized islands on mars

      A 600 year journey to the next closest star? No. Consider the Alpha Centauri system. It is about 4.3 lightyears away. If we use a nuclear salt rocket engine we should be able to get there in about 25 years with tech we can make in the next 10-20 years.

      @@2MeterLP Proxima Centauri B is an Exo-planet that is similar in size and atmosphere to earth, it's situated within the Goldilocks zone as well so it's generally theorized that we could live there, however the issue is that one side is extremely hot and the other is freezing cold and we'd have to live in the middle of it and not to mention that it'd take 1000s of years so unless we figure out FTL or Cryoships it's very unlikely.

    The more I hear about this scenario, the more I think about All Tommorows - the story starting from Martians declaring independence.
