I mean, that's the idea, right? I feel like the purpose of Star talk is not to lecture, but to present science in a way that it just rubs on you and you notice you're actually learning while laughing at Neil laughing at Chuck 😅

@@TheMcspreader 😂😂😂

Chuck is learning astrophysics but can't learn how to pronounce the names of the people asking questions 😅

Two black men discussing physics on TV. How cool is THAT ?

😀👍🏻 i know what U mean

Isaac Arthur explains all that and how it can be done but it's more likely favorable to live underground. He also brings up floating cities on Venus and that though very slow Venus is actually easier to terra-form. Even turning the asteroid belt into O'Neill cylinders and starting our Dyson swarm. Because if you can manage a LaGrange Point orbital magnetic field for a planet doing it for a cylinder is a cake walk. Of course all his futurism is centuries ahead mostly though amazingly based on real physics and technologies that are totally feasible. He'll explain warp drive or wormholes but also why they don't likely work out. So you use massive fusion lasers or beam energy from the swarm to the lasers and push ships toward slowing lasers pre-built by Von Neumann probes! Seriously hundreds of great videos and an honestly positive thinker.

Does anyone know the book nemesis by azimov? Could small engines eventually stop the loss of one of the moons, the escaping moon?

A serious look at adding a magnetosphere to Mars. medium.com/our-space/an-artificial-martian-magnetosphere-fd3803ea600c

I think you right Mars need an strong magnetic field and stronger gravity .

Not true. The atmosphere would bleed off over millions of years. If youve already slapped an atmosphere down in a generation or few human life times then this isn't an issue Mars today still has atmosphere left from when it had a magnetosphere 4 billion years ago. It's a slow process

It’s not a solution though…

human should not move to mars because the least humanity could do is terraform mars and leave it exactly like earth so nature could reclaime it as theyre home because the only thing human has done is consume, destroy, waste and consume the true home of the wild life so they can reclaim as theyre new and true home

@Keksi That's not true. I'm Christian and I'd like to see Mars being terraformed. But I'd also like to see politicians accept that global warming exists and that we need to fix the planet we're on before considering other planets.

@Keksi this should be going viral

@Keksi what's funny is a bowl of chilli to terraform Mars has more in common than your argument with just whatever you were talking about. i *could* explain to you why that was the stupidest thing I heard the last week or even month, but I don't like wasting time.

What you really mean is that peons find him comical. 😅

In 7 billion years, the Sun will engulf the Earth and it doesn't matter. Eventually, humans will become a multi-planet species or go extinct.

Well no because the sun will eat earth

Yeah but what will be left to conserve if we are hit with a gamma ray burst or some asteroid like the one that resulted in the total annihilation of the dinosaurs.Not just those two but there are a million other threats that can destroy this planet .What do you suggest we do if something like that happens.

@@reddragon771 Oh its simple we will die there is your answer

@@reddragon771 Does it matter if nothing living is there to get killed? With that argumentation you can save time and effort terraforming any planet, as those also can get hit by whatever. The destruction here is man made and will continue everwhere else

"Help the Ecology!"

We shouldn’t Terraform Planets as any life that was adapted to the Environment of the Planet beforehand would be killed because they couldn’t survive in conditions that we could. We could’ve studied the life on that Planet and stuff but then we will it off. We also shouldn’t Terraform Planets because many places on those planets might be flooded and many cool sights that maybe people would wanna see would be flooded and to never be seen again. Also by the time we would have Terraformed a planet, That Planet mostly likely have hundreds of Millions of People Living on it. We could easily live in Contained Habitations and not Terraform the Planet. Terraforming would be useless. The Last Reason I think we shouldn’t Terraform Planets is because low Elevation cities could be flooded. We would have to evacuate possibly millions of people to do that! Ya these are my reasons we shouldn’t Terraform Planets.

T Durden very enlightening, thank you!

That earns a like on any planet.

They can do weightlifting.

A question, why would they come back to Earth? That's your new home at that point.

Large rotating habitats. There’s a Japanese architecture firm that figured out a design that is the size of a 20-40 story bldg that looks like a wine glass. The rotating wine glass part is a wider angle on mars than there design for the moon in order to get the resulting gravity to be 1g. Should be wide enough that people, or most people, won’t get sea sick and the forces at peoples heads will be fairly close to what they experience at there feet. If only spend a 10 hour shift every day or every other day out on the surface doing exploration stuff you would not deteriorate as bad. In the short term they could put up a smaller system that is similar in concept, but maybe does not rotate as fast to get to .6 or .7 g. Or if it is small and moving very fast it might still be doable for 1 g but because the forces on peoples heads and feet would be to different it might make most sense to use for sleeping quarters and stationary exercise equipment where your body is mostly perpendicular to the center of the rotation where your head is not more that a few inches closer to the center. There is a carnival fair ride called the graviton that rotates fast enough to get to 3g. If you had a similar design on Mars to go from .38 to 1 g it would be rotating much slower and as long as you were laying down and not up walking across the center most people probably would not get supper sea sick.

They could still walk and do things. It'd just be a lot harder for them. It'd be like you doubling your weight overnight for 2 weeks. Even someone born and raised on Mars could visit and not be miserable with proper training. I could be wrong though. Too much scifi.

Yes you right especially when you smoking a big old joint

Exile your city fathers to Mars?

People care about Mars. They don't care about your street. Humans can do almost anything we can imagine if we want to.

What's stopping you from fixing your own fuckin street? People can terraform Mars because they want to. If you wanted your street fixed you can do it. Or you can sit back and wonder why anyone does anything since you do nothing.

everyone stop trying to act smart cause you aren't Jeffery Was MAKING A JOKE

Yeah, so we need to save Earth first.

Yep

Damn straight. Lets fix up the mess here first, its got to be easier than terraforming Mars.

That is actually not accurate. Earth is pretty much beyond repair already. Stabilizing sure saving. Not so much.

Bullocks. It would be easier to save Earth than to make Mars habitable for humans. It is not even a life friendly planet, the costs would be astronomical. Mine it for resources, sure, no one is there- but Earth is a far more worthwhile investment, it is home.

I think that bombing the poles could actually help reheat the outer core and make it liquid...I think...don’t come at me if I’m wrong lol

NASA says its be possible to create a artificial magnetic sphere, and not completely outside of our technological abilities.

@@Mksterk1998 satellites

3.14159265358 put a large electromagnet in a heliocentric orbit that coincides with mars

GoodWolf yea, and it to mention some new dictator may raise an army on mars at some point and mars may be regarded an enemy. We may have the tech to wipe mars out, but the ethical issues to face will be interesting. But all that is way into the future.

I've been saying for years that, to a large extent, many of our social and political problems are simply due to the fact that earth no longer has any frontier. In the earliest days of the U.S., if you didn't like the way things were going... you simply packed up and moved west. Can't do THAT anymore...

But also that if we’re able to terraform another planet it’s a plan B for if any other extinction event happens on earth since even if we can only send bacteria to a terra formed mars it could eventually evolve into new life on another planet given the right circumstances

we also grew up watching star wars and other space related civilizations, so colonizing mars is very appealing to us.

@@bobinthewest8559 True. Hopefully Mars and maybe Floating Venus Cities can give us those opportunities back! 😁👍🏻

Yuh

If we speed up the rotation then the days and nights will no longer be similar to earth. Also the mass of mars isnt similar to that of earth and so even that will also be a reason for the gases leaving the planet.

You guys are big brain

Yep, of course. I'll add, DUH Mars does not have an atmosphere for a reason.

It is also needed to protect inhabitants from solar radiation.

@@nickolascrousillat4265 we only need to speed up the molten core

Yea they managed to miss quite a few valid points to terraforming Mars. I feel bad for anyone who watched this and came away with the idea that all we need is methane and bacteria to make Mars habitable... 😕

where do you listen to neil for hours?? we rarely get over 1 hour on startalk

I guess because a spinning space station is a bit more difficult to build than a surface station. When you think about it, the engineering challenges of designing a Martian surface habitat aren't **that** fundamentally different from building a space station.

If Mars is colonized, then we could potentially also build a system where the entire martian electrical grid is first funneled through a system that creates a planetary aligned magnetic field.

@@nolan4339 Exactly. People keep up talking about magnetic fields. As if making one isn't old tech. Someone needs to explain how electromagnets work to these guys.

@@infozone9601 On a Planetary Scale? Where's the power going to come from to create that and maintain it - indefinitely? What kind of effect is that going to have on the people who live there? Seems you'd want to do that before you tried Terra Forming it rather than after. .

Not likely, especially with regards to Mars. With the Martian atmospheric density, it would be like breathing at 35 kilometers above earth's surface. We wouldn't get enough of anything to keep us functional.

see ur a man of culture

@@t.j1301 👌👌👌

I'm so glad that I don't get it.

Treelon Musk*

Don’t count on it happening unless the problem with Mars almost non existing magnetic field can be strengthened enough to keep the solar winds from stripping away the atmosphere and less gravity on Mars having a bad effect on our bodies bones and organs.

Could you do that?

@@lebryantjohnson7306 Its a simple weapon and quite destructive.

With the amount mass to be added via asteroids could it slow the revolution speed of Mars around the sun. Although with our planets traveling around the sun and our solar system around our galaxy I wonder if these forces help maintain our planets orbit around the sun.

That would proper dank

What if you reverse the runaway greenhouse on Venus,would it cool enough to live there?

@@Ron-rs2zl it would solve most of it but not all, ex Venus doesn't have oxygen nor water and rotates every 116 days and cooling it is more harder to do than heat it. It would for example need a giant umbrella of mirrors to Shadow the planet which it turn would require massive engineering and materials. I have no doubt that eventually it will be terraformed but for now Its easier to just build habitable areostats and link them together using oxygen itself as a lifting gas.

Need to get grav stabilisers tho

9 seconds pizza sounds nice.
