#terraforming

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Dieser Tage stolpere ich über einen Artikel, #terraforming auf dem #Mars zu betreiben, mit allerlei Details wie und warum das jetzt starten soll, und so weiter.

In meiner Jugend hieß es, der Mars habe seine #Atmosphäre verloren (oder konnte keine entwickeln), weil es kein ausreichend starkes Magnetfeld gibt, was den Planeten vor dem #Sonnenwind schützt. Der Sonnenwind bläst die Atmosphäre ins All weg.

Hat sich das Problem zwischenzeitlich erledigt, oder warum spricht da niemand mehr von?

Why is #terraforming #mars talked about so much more, than terraforming #venus ? Yes sure, Mars is in a state the we can send humans to right now. But Mars has next to no atmosphere, it has no magnetic field and we have no idea wheter there's water there. There might be giant underground aquifers... there might not. Venus is believed to have water once, but we also have really good idea where it went. Mars is way too cold, Venus is way too hot. To me that looks like Venus would be an equally good if not a better candidate 🤷

The case for Mars #terraforming research: static1.squarespace.com/static -> "Here we discuss what we know about Mars’s volatile inventories and soil composition, and possible approaches to warm Mars and increase atmospheric O2. New techniques have emerged that could raise Mars’s average global temperature by tens of degrees within a few decades."

#Technofeudalists and the perceived #AI threat incongruence

... importantly, there is, in my view, no discrepancy on a strategic (intent) level:

a) #Musk's primary goal is, as you know, to transform #humanity into a #MultiplanetarySpecies. Colonizing the closest possible habitable planet (#Mars, #Terraforming) is indispensable for this lifty aim. That will cost the global economy billions of dollars for many years, that will then be missing for feeding the poor...

We got some weird animals, and we're very close to total terraformation of planet Humble! Let's finish it off and get outta here!
