Terraforming is transforming a planet into one that is similar to Earth (so that an ecosystem in which humans can survive will sustain itself).

Can you start terraforming mars today?

|Yes you can! On your bike son!


Is terraforming likely to occur at some point in the future?

Yes


Will the terraforming of mars help if the sun blew up?

If the sun exploded (went into supernova), then I highly doubt that terraforming of ANY world in our Solar system would be enough to save us from the catastrophic explosion of the Sun.


What technologies would need to be used to accomplish terraforming?

actually a simple rock could do terraforming (reshaping the terrain of the earth). The glacier age was extremely efficient, and so are volcanoes. You could get complicated and use sophisticated machinery like bulldoziers... Hope that helps.


Is it possible to change the temperature of Mars?

Yes it is certainly scientifically possible. See links on terraforming and in particular Mars.


What is Neptune's terraforming?

Terraforming a planet is the process of modifying it to make it like Terra (Earth) although it is normally used to simply refer to making the atmosphere breathable by higher animals and plants. With this definition, Terraforming Neptune would be giving it an atmosphere that humans can breathe. That being said, it's impossible to terraform Neptune, because it is a naturally stormy gas giant with winds raging up to 2,000mph, very little sunlight for food or energy, is too far from the sun to hold liquid water and has an exposed molten core that you'd fall into and be vaporised by if you try to stand on the planet.


When will you send a manned mission to Venus?

Not in this millennium. Venus is too hot and high pressure. Perhaps an automatic terraforming complex can convert it. But not soon.


What is stopping us from launching algae and anaerobic bacteria to Mars in order to begin terraforming for possible future habitation?

Launching algae and anaerobic bacteria to Mars for terraforming could have unintended consequences on the planet's ecosystem and could potentially harm any native life forms that may exist. It is essential to thoroughly study and understand the Martian environment before introducing foreign organisms. Additionally, international scientific and ethical guidelines would need to be followed to ensure responsible terraforming practices.


What is jupiters terraforming?

Pretty sure the answer is "impossible". You'd need to start by getting rid of at least 99% of its mass, and there's no practical way of doing that.


What are some of the major obstacles to the terraforming of Mars?

Some major obstacles to terraforming Mars include its thin atmosphere, lack of a global magnetic field to shield it from solar radiation, and the absence of a significant greenhouse effect to trap heat. Additionally, the low temperatures and lack of liquid water on the planet pose significant challenges to creating a habitable environment for humans.


Can you create your own planet on spore?

There is but it's got terraforming tool section which you can make into T1 to T3. Each one is hot, cold, high density air, and barren.
