Even worse is the fact that trying to build an atmosphere with large quantities of a gas like this will push all the Oxygen up. Even Carbon Dioxide (CO2) can displace Oxygen if you have too much and that's less than 1.5 times the weight of Oxygen gas (O2). Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is over 4 times the weight of Oxygen gas, so it would basically create an invisible "ocean" of SF6 that would asphyxiate you while most of the other gases floated above it.

On one hand we should be thankful that this happens as without it the Earth would just be another desolate barren wet rock. But it also would expedite hydrogen escape due to photo-ionization and photo-disintegration respectively as it doesn't take much energy to boost a hydrogen atom beyond escape velocity. Now the destruction of methane could probably be solved quite effectively with an ecology that recycles those nutrients back into a gas so avoiding hydrogen loss would be the main issue and one not unique to the Earth. Star lifting could probably fix that pretty quickly too. and I have to wonder could we develop our artificial magnetosphere to capture some degree of incoming hydrogen, and while you are at it helium 3, from the solar wind?

Favourite method of giving Mars a magnetic field is to wrap a conductive spiral around the equator. Made from aluminium, continuously poured into an enormous trench and powered from an equatorial band of solar panels. Helpfully also distributes power around the planet 24.5/7. While its inductance would be enormous, to protect it from solar wind induced currents, large single turn short circuited rings could be placed either side of it. The cross sectional area has to be silly to keep the volt drop down.

Would kinda love to see real dog space suits, of the most popular human companion species dogs and perhaps horses I'd imagine being near the top of the list of species with the potential to adapt to such augmentation. I base this on the fact that dogs are very trainable and there is good evidence the vast majority of the species can be trained to be comfortable wearing garments to at least some degree. Horses I would be even more willing to bet on being trainable to become comfortable wearing something like a space suit, hell they can be trained to wear very heavy and restrictive materials including decking them out in plate armour covering most of their body a space suit would arguably be both lighter and less restrictive. At the other end of the spectrum of human companions that could be trained to adapt to living with us in such environments I guess would be such as the domestic cat, as a species they are extremely resistant to training and few humans are able to train them to grow comfortable wearing even lightweight garments let alone anything as bulky and restrictive as a space suit.

Alright. Your comment about the mar’s length of day and compare it to earth’s, and how Martians would prefer a longer day for added sleep, rather than a shorter day, w/ less time for work. However, I don’t think that a minor difference in rotation would be an issue, as Martians would just adjust to the day length, as is. The only issue would be time orientation with earth. Eventually Tuesday on earth would be Wednesday on mars, or vice versa. So why expend the additional energy to adjust the rotation, if adaptation was possible.

You don't need a magnetic field around mars. Atmospheric leakage takes place on geologic timescales. If you can build the atmosphere in the first place, it's trivial to maintain it. And the atmosphere itself is what blocks the most radiation. Mar's current atmosphere already shields enough such that being on the surface is about equal to being on ISS in terms of radiation exposure.

I think you're seeing it the wrong way: he is overcoming it, not "embracing" it. And the discomfort from the beginning has been with viewers, not with Isaac in the first place. I think you are trying to be complementary, but it came out wrong, so it sounds like you just want to pretend it isn't there, and have Isaac pretend it isn't there, and if we can all be in total denial, that's a better approach.

I never got why you keep insisting that to terraform a planet you'd need to process every square meter of surface area and add algae. Why can't you just seed all of the soil bacteria you might need, plus algae, and then leave it to process the soil and spread? Mars soil is really similar to Earth soil, except for the perchlorates (we have bacteria that can process that) and the biomatter in it, which would build up in time with lifeforms geowing and dieing in the soil.

Don't forget the near-Earth asteroids. Before and after our position in our orbital path, much closer than the asteroid belt or even Mars, and lower gravity than the Moon - important for moving stuff around.

It probably makes the most sense to simply "dome" over the whole surface of the planet, one section at a time as demand dictates (although a flat roof, supported by columns would be more useful, because you could build on top of it). An enclosed city with a "sky" 100 metres up and artificial lighting simulating a 24-hour day/night cycle could seem pretty Earth-like (other than the low gravity). Each city could have a different climate, to appeal to different people. New Vancouver might be temperate, with four distinct "seasons," and boulevards lined with Martian pines; while New Honolulu would be warm and summery year-round with sandy beaches and Martian coconut palm trees, etc. You could attach your public transportation infrastructure to the ceiling, allowing the ground area to be a pleasant mix of green spaces, public areas and walking/cycling trails.

Combine this episode with the one on future sports: Skydiving on a terraformed Mars. With the thicker atmosphere and lower gravity, it would last forever (hyperbole) and have a smaller chance of a catastrophic end in the event that something goes wrong (improperly deployed chute or not landing in the proper position).

Further most plants can do without nitrogen in air too when the water contains solved nitrogen salts. Plants can be grown in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroponics or mist without soil. Thus the only gases to grow plants are oxygen and CO2. As plants survive much higher CO2 content than insects and mammals that can be used to get rid of plant pests. Actually I think most people like Dune like desert planets and just giving Mars a modest oxygen-CO2 atomsphere which barely let's humans survive could be a nice background for a SF story. Just some domes or underground caves or tunnels for growing plants and an oasis here and there and I think we can skip the sandworms. I am not sure if I remember the figures correctly but I guess that's around 3.3 tons of oxygen per square meter so that humans could breath on Mars.

its sound great!!

I've just started this video, but what about dumping our nuclear waste near Mars' core to heat it up? As far as I know, it's mostly the nuclear material that keeps Earth's outer core from freezing.

I wonder if you could steal Venus's atmosphere by ionizing it with energy from the sun and then funnelling it towards Mars with a series of giant magnets.

You could start with the magnet they used on Schwartz's Island. I heard KAOS decommissioned it some time ago. Siegfried?

The best thing about terraforming Mars is that it will inspire people to build the infrastructure in space needed to do it.

personally, I think it's the ONLY good thing about terraforming Mars.

Para-terraforming may be the most cost-effective way. Make it like Trantor.

I know that Isaac is an advocate for orbital habitats, rather than terraforming . I think he laid out a reasonable case for that in this episode. I just miss the math calculations from earlier episodes. Love the channel.

Good stuff Isaac.

Why not create a new moon for Mars as well? (like move Ceres out from the belt or make one out fusing asteroids together). Phobos and Deimos are pretty much negligible, so this new moon could help with developing its magnetosphere to better hold a new atmosphere.

David Rosner. We could just make one by merging lots of smaller asteroids together, (it'll take a long time but so does terraforming), or using several asteroids as a gravity tractor to tow Ceres into Martian orbit. Though the first idea seems easier.

@feynstein1004

@David Rosner Earth's magnetic field isn't produced by tidal effects but by the molten core afaik. Assuming Mars' core isn't molten, even with tidal heating, it might take millions of years to get it to melt again. That kind of timescale isn't practical.

Another excellent reason why I stay up all night.

Issac, before "trucking in" the water via comet bombardment wouldn't you need to create a layer of atmosphere so that the water simply doesn't evaporate away? Another great video, keep it up!!!

@stevenhetzel6483

10 ай бұрын

Yes and no. The vapor could eventually help create a dense enough atmosphere to keep it from vaporizing more. You'd need a shitload more water, but when you're trucking in 100000 trains of water per day, who's counting anymore?

Parasites?? I forgot about them, OK I guess we need them. Lets just genetic engineer them to make them less "parasity". :)

Please support terrestrial genetic engineering of parasites to make them less creepy... well, less deadly at least. We're working on it, but the politics are a serious pain in the ass. Then we can get around bio-forming Mars for those silly folks who want to leave Earth just to stick themselves into another gravity well (I'm all for leaving Earth) ;) kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqKuxdmNqdWck6g.html

You can actually genetic engineer them to make them usefull. For example specific parasites that help you loose weight without a diet. Eat what you want, as much as you want, parasites will just eat all the excess nutrients.

I specifically like the transition between unterraformend and terraformed Mars (but I might be a bit biased on that) ;) ;P
