    I thought Mars’s problem in not being habitable was that its mass is too small, so its core cooled down and its magnetic field weakened. This is why it can’t hold onto a thick atmosphere. So even if we started thickening the atmosphere, wouldn’t the solar wind just blast it off?

    Theories, not mentioned in the stream:
    1. Orbit/launch meteorite(s), and make it impact Mars.
    2. To keep the Sun from "eating" the Earth, humans could send the Sun "fuel" to avoid it from going to expand and to keep it dense, while it would make it last longer in a "not dangerous to the Earth" status. A sort of adaption fuel that "inject" into the flow without interrupting too much.

    I met Elon Musk in 2000 and we discussed many of these ideas. There isn't a smarter business developer or CEO that has done what Elon has done with Tesla or SpaceX. Elon is even building multiple Starships for the consideration of commercial space exploration and colonization. Some people think they are smarter than Elon but I have yet to see anyone outsmart him. Using methane and oxygen, also known as ultra cool methylox for his Starship Rockets was brilliant considering most planets we will land on will have the ingredients to propel the Starships further out of our solar system and back. Of course the use of helium 3 in a nuclear fusion rocket would take us to the depths of our solar system and further a lot faster. Over the period of a few years he can realign him self back in the winning seat because he's already aware of the steps he has to take and he's already making them! Elon Musk is making the world cleaner and better place to live for many generations to come. I don't know if you could say the same for the fossil fuel industry! Even though the businesses we talked about we're going to be incredibly difficult to become successful at, there was a good chance of success! That's why we talked about ways of reducing advertising, manufacturing and distribution costs. Elon was going to move forward regardless, he said they were all good ideas and should be done. We even talked about ways of slingshotting your initial business by becoming your own best supplier. This eliminates being controlled by your suppliers. Innovative people with integrity expect to be believed otherwise they let time prove them right. So let's shoot for the Moon and Mars, then we will live amongst the Stars!

    @jazmann2007 8 місяців тому +3

    Probably the best way to make Venus or Mars habitable for humans through terraforming is to change the orbit of these planets around the sun further into the habitable zone. But humanity is still far from technically capable of doing this. In addition, the terraforming process would take thousands of years.

    • @nickidaisydandelion4044
      @nickidaisydandelion4044 5 місяців тому

      For Mars the terraforming phase might only last a hundred years if it's done right. During the beginning phase people have to live in thick glass dome structures. They introduce mosses which grow in very high altitudes that are used to low oxygen levels or even no oxygen. Those will then emit oxygen into the the atmosphere and very gradually increase the oxygen level to where they can introduce very hardy larger plants like pine trees, cacti, tumbleweed etc which will increase the oxygen level further.

    Venus makes sense. It is in our Solar System, so close enough. It has an atmosphere, albeit a toxic atmosphere. It would be easier to filter the toxins, convert the toxins and other gasses to less harmful and/or even useful gasses. Also, the Greenhouse effect due to the make-up of the atmosphere on Venus is the cause of the temperatures. In this video, it talks about "surface cooling pipes", which is just absurd. Correcting the atmospheric make-up will naturally regulate the temperature to a normal habitable zone, and it wouldn't take centuries after the atmosphere was at an acceptable level either. The changes would be much faster and catastrophic to its current environment than believed. Not catastrophic to our needs, just it's current or "native" state.

    Imagine how lucky the people in thousands of year are that are going to experience all this! Sadly we will be there to experience it.

    Heh? 32 degrees Celsius is about 90 degrees Fahrenheit. I think he meant to say 32 degrees Fahrenheit in the cooling capsule which is freezing point.

    I'm more dubious about the prospects of terraforming Mars and Titan than I am Venus. Somehow the Earth cooled down... So also can Venus be cooled down.

    Sabatier process as used in space to create air for ppl to breath could also be used to generate hydrogen fuel the engine could burn or use the co2 from breathing to create methane to generate power to push us further into space an a decent speed an could harvest hydrogen from space man the options are endsless but nothing gets done
