The low 0.38g gravity is prohibitive. Who in his right mind would go settle on Mars, if he or she knows that their kids will probably die an early death to the low gravity... and even if they would not die on Mars, they could never withstand the higher gravity on Earth.

We have enough space in Siberia to house another 30 billion people. Mars makes 0 sense for settlement. We need to look elsewhere.

You would have to spin up Venus retrograde rotation. It takes ages for one day to pass. You could either simulate "day" with a sun-shield (which you would be using to cool the planet down anyway) or nuke the fuck out of it with asteroids for a more permanent option.

Honestly though if we ever get to space we'll be doing mini-cylinder thingies that simulate gravity with centrifugal force. It's more economical and space efficient than living on planets.

gravity is pretty important for a lot more than just survival. Holding the atmosphere in place is pretty big.

Sure it can, it's just expensive: drop the moons onto the planet.

Surface water CANNOT survive on Mars. Without a strong magnetosphere, solar winds will blow it right off the surface and whatever puddles are left will become RADIOACTIVE!! Without that, you can forget plant life, more oxygen, etc.

If you're are going to put everything inside pods, you might as well do that on the moon, underwater, or in the Sahara, or Antarctica (which is also a bad idea).

An artificial atmosphere with Earthlike conditions would last for about a million years. If we can generate an earthlike atmosphere there is no reason we couldn't constantly regenerate an earthlike atmosphere. The first human settlers will live in domes anyway. Terraforming is still a thousands of years away technology that might not even prove to be that economical than to just create small protected domes on or under the surface that create earthlike conditions. Of course the problem with domes would be the limited space, but humanity would build more domes as population grows

No, the entire reason NASA is focused on Mars as a target for colonization is because centrifuge experiments with mice on the ISS prove it has just enough gravity for healthy foetal gestation whereas the Moon does not.

>We have enough space in Siberia to house another 30 billion people.

How will that save us if an asteroid obliterates the Earth? The point of colonizing Mars was never to alleviate overpopulation, we physically can't move humans off the Earth faster than more are born. The point was to create a backup of humanity outside of Earth in case of a devastating catastrophe that causes humanity on Earth to go extinct.

There are practical resource access reasons to expand into the ocean but this is not one of them.

Problem is we could never escape. The surface would be fucked. On fire, radioactive, etc.

The alternative is death. If I pointed a gun at you I bet I could make you do all kinds of things. Humans strongly do not wish to die and will do basically anything to avoid it.

>Without a strong magnetosphere, solar winds will blow it right off the surface

Yes, over millions of years. That is how long it took the first time. That is many many times the entire duration of human civilization.

Even if we did nothing to maintain the new atmosphere it would take so long to blow away again that it's irrelevant.

But then we can just use the same terraforming machinery we used to make the new atmosphere to also maintain it continuously.

There is no point in going to Venus. Mars is attractive because it's a first step towards the outwards of the solar system. It would being us closer to Jupiter's Moons, which would bring us closer to Saturn's moons which brings us closer to Uranus moons, which brings us closer to Neptun's moon, which brings us closer to the TNO's which brings us closer to the Oort Cloud which brings us closer to the next star system.

Venus would be a luxury colonization. Maybe if someone decided Venus and Mercury should join the human space empire. But otherwise it doesn't bring us any closer to conquering the universe

I liked a lot the conspiracy/political stuff moments of the episodes, but from what I can recall they used to divert from that a little bit too often, plus there were plenty of mysteries that were just never explained...
Should definitely check out if the new season is out, that series had a weird effect on me, 5/10 good minutes could totally reward an otherwise shitty episode, and that shit usually doesn't work on me

Space is empty. Veeeeery empty. You could actually travel with FTL through the Astroid Belt that sits between Mars and Jupiter and would not hit a thing although there's dwarf planet sized objects in there (forgot Ceres a s midway destination between Mars and Jupiter Moons btw)

Also we wouldn't even need FTL travel to colonize the Galaxy.

A strong enough magnetic shield could divert small metallic debris. Add to that an electrical arc defense, like reactive tank armor and it can vaporize anything else that's small enough. Then on top of that, thick ablative armor. Possibly an entire small asteroid.

The earth is just the right distance from the sun to make it appropriate for us. Venus average temperature is 460 celsius. Even if you removed the greenhouse CO2 from the volcanic activity, the planet would still be too close to the sun, meaning too high temps for us.

I fully agree. If you truly understand the science we have so far you will realise that Mars will be our mining world. Babies cannot be born there.

Best case scenario Mars will have an orbiting space station that simulates earth's 9.8m/s gravity, for when female Mars employees get pregnant.

We need to remove the retards from earth, set up sustainable arcologies, start mining the moon and then move on to mars. Establish mars research outpost ASAP though.

Then work on warp drive to move on to new systems.

We're going to die in our solar system if we keep tolerating leftists, niggers and the barbarian peoples of the world.

That is the entire reason why the focus is on colonizing Mars over the Moon.

Why would we mine Mars instead of the Moon when Lunar gravity is so much lower? It costs a lot more fuel to get loads of metal out of the Martian gravity well compared to the Moon

Your all not seeing the big picture on how the great human empire will be established.
First, Musk fanboys and other futurist cucks (like those getting microchipped) will enjoy low earth orbit space stations but quickly realise a spinning station has its drawbacks and children growing up won't develop properly. The working class will probably be on the moon at this point overseeing helium-3 mining operations, water and power harvesting etc. and experience something similar.
Next the elites still on Earth will promote "soft" genetic engineering (so far most GE will have been cosmetic) in order to allow people to adapt in low g much better than the wild type. Slowly a caste system of optimised humans will be created to colonise the moons of Jupiter/Saturn, Mars and work will being in larger deep space habitats/Venus floating city. The castes will be dependent on those on the homeworld for genetic variation and suddenly Earth based people will become a commodity. All of this will be administered from the low earth and larger habitats, now filled with a genetically superior ruling class as they will form the gatekeeper to the solar system's need for wild type humans to prevent delitatious mutation.

>could never withstand the higher gravity on Earth.

Those are a lot of possiblities you are treating like facts.

Don't forget in the past scientists said:

>Trains could never move past 24 miles an hour. We were never meant to move that fast and the speed would suck the air out of our lungs and people would die.

>Heavier than air flying machines are impossible

>1934, Albert Einstein was quoted in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette as saying, “There is not the slightest indication that [nuclear energy] will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will.”

The real reason we shouldn't terraformed Mars is the fact it does not have a big enough magnetic field to protect the planet from solar bursts of radiation. It's why the planet is bare. It's atmosphere was ripped off millions or billions of years ago. If it was terraformed, it would always have the risk of being stripped off again.

But that does not mean stations and underground bubbles of life could not be created. It is silly to think a little less or more gravity would kill humans.

We must do it for the science and to gain experience in living on planets, interplanetary logistics etc.

Sure it probably won't be a klondyke and mars will never have more than thousands of inhabitants. But all the experience we could gain from it would be priceless.

>According to the medium variant, the world population is projected to reach 9.6 billion persons by 2050, that is, 2.4 billion more than in 2013, an increase slightly under the combined populations of China and India today. Most of this growth is projected to come from developing countries. Between 2013 and 2050, the population of the more developed regions will remain largely unchanged at around 1.3 billion inhabitants, but the population of the less developed regions is projected to rise from 5.9 billion in 2013 to 8.3 billion in 2050.

Among other things, the median age of the world will also increase as healthcare, life expectancy and living conditions improve, leading to an older population in general.

The magnetic field is truly the least of our worries. The stripping of the atmosphere would take a million years again and we can regenerate it in that time. Maybe even mine Venus atmosphere because its atmospheric pressure needs to be lowered anyway.

Yes, you can. Now, tell me this, how is that terraforming Mars? Because it is not. If you do that, you can just as easily then live in a large space station in orbit around Earth... which makes even less sense from a colonization perspective.

Don't know if anyone here has watched Utopia, but that's the mostly likely solution. Governments will work together to create a vaccine that sterilizes 95% of the population and then unleash an epidemic to make everyone take it without even realizing it. Before you know it, the Earth's population will stabilize at a lower level, and no one will even die.
