It is mainly not due to lack of atmosphere or such. Assumed, Mars would be for one day of same temperature as earth, by whatever methods achieved, this would go within one day and one night. Mars nights are colder than -100 centigrades. http://www.geocities.com/marsterraforming/terraforming.html Don't think it would take a week. Hundreds of years probably, if possible. | ||

I'm not sure if my vision of nuclear fusion is a bit too utopical, but wouldnt it be the best way to cover our entire energyproduction aswell as make for easy powersources on a planet like mars? | ||

It currently takes us 30 years to get to the damn planet, what makes anyone think we are anywhere near the kind of things you discuss anyways? I think at some point terraforming might be possible, but for now it certainly is not. Posing the question "should we lazer cannon or nuke the ice" wont get a thread anywhere imo. I could be wrong but I would think it to be more realistic that we first develop a way of getting there adequately. Best to "cross that bridge" when we get to it kinda thing. edit- actually it takes a few months I guess the proper window takes about 3 years. Diagram | ||

Uh no why? I just started reading it like a few months ago then got some other books I wanted to read more so I stopped. I don't really see what your point is. | ||

If you want to talk about terraforming Mars, you should start by figuring out how we're going to give it a proper, denser atmosphere and a warmer surface temperature. Then the ice would melt on its own, anyway (and stay melted, for that matter). Then we'd have to find a way to stop all life from getting irradiated to death by the solar wind, since Mars isn't protected by a magnetic field like the Earth is. I guess it's nice to know for sure that there's water there already so that we don't need to import it ourselves. But we still have a lot to figure out. we would have to melt the ice to create an atmosphere | ||

All other claims say there's only Ice but this one says otherwise: ![[image loading]](http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y59/Sc0rpion10/wateronmars1.jpg) That was more funny when I posted it last year =P.
