Fun fact: oxygen is a byproduct of using Mars's atmosphere to make rocket fuel!

Awesome. Now, tiny octopus notes, the billionaires can go to Mars and set their shit on fire too.

I can't say I know a lot about this, but I don't think it's enough.

What about an Earth tree with a lot of confidence and doesn't mind expressing it?

Arnie and 3 tit courtesans are up next?

Yes, although I'm hoping they go straight to the 4-tit model.

1-2 more billion years and a stronger magnetosphere and we’ll turn Mars right around.

We just need to start the reactor, Quaid

I thought they wanted to nuke the ice in the polar areas to get more water in the atmosphere turning it into several thousand years

There's not nearly enough ice.

Need a magnetosphere first. Lack of a strong one is what stripped away all the water & atmosphere in the first place.

Alright, but hear me out. What if we just nuked the planet until it's livable?

Yeah, we really should be checking out Ganymede... at least it has a magnetosphere... and an Oxygen atmosphere (a tad thin tho)

Yeah but Ganymede is at 628.3 million km from earth vs 54.6 million km from Mars to earth, is a tad closer in fuel tanks

... and by 'tad' I mean, it is around 1 microPa vs 101kPa on Earth... so, um, thinner.

That’s almost as thin as my patience when I (try to) play Bloodborne.
