If you let me
Is it possible to terraform Venus? Even with proposals to modify its climate in the future?
You could build a series of floating pipes and pumps from space elevator materials and just pump all the co2 up into space.
I should clarify, a cloud city, and part of it a hollow tube crafted as a space elevator would be, dipping one end into the tops of the co2 layer and the other just anchoring the pipe in free space and venting the co2.
Stop with these stupid terraforming threads!
We will NEVER terraform any planet. By the time we have the technology (this alone will take centuries) and the resources to do so, we would no longer need (or want) to terraform a planet.
This is why we never DO anything. People like you always want to wait until the next better way of doing it comes along.
Well theres always a new better tech on the horizon, we could have colonised asteroids in the fucking 80s. Funny thing is when you actually start to DO something you start to become very effective at it very rapidly.
We could learn a lot from actually doing something.
Didn't all the water boil into space?
Oh fuck we haven't even landed on another planet and it's already starting. We'll have ample time to study Venus and the the other planets but if we had the ability to terraform planets there's no reason to not do it, Venus is a lifeless hellscape, why not make it better? What value does Venus have to us other than planetary science?
>we could have colonized asteroids in the fucking 80’s
we couldn't even get regular launch schedule up and running. Let alone DO anything useful at all in space, except deploy satellites.
>No such thing as too much CO2 for plants
Let me guess, you're a math or physics major?
Engineering obviously
