One way we could terra-form Mars is to take gasses from Venus and place them on Mars. That way, we would be terrarorming both Mars and Venus! ;D

Also, witold, how did you make that picture? ???

And I heard that they are trying to terraform mars around 2020?

No, within 2020 is planned the first human landing on Mars

Oh, wait, am I now starting on this again... *Sigh*

you need to chanmge the atmospheres from within using solar powered machines

It isn't a question of technology knowledge or availability. The problem is money: why the US or whatever government should spend billions to colonize Mars? Which are the advantages?

The first landing on the Moon brought a lot of prestige to the United States because they won the race with the URSS, but now?

Resources? They can't be extracted and brought to Earth cheaply from Mars.

Life? Probes can do it without humans. (Spirit, Opportunity...). And however, after discovering life on other planets, there aren't concrete advantages...

Prestige? Maybe, but not like the landing on the Moon. Why? We already know we can do it...

A more useful colonization would be the Moon one: the Moon can be used as a very efficient vacuum factory and as a launch pad at 0.15 Earth gravity. And it is nearer, so cheaper.

That is why I question the need of an international space staion, when the moon is a more preferable checkpoint.

But isn't it a question about technology then? :P
The ressources can't be extracted and brought to Earth cheaply from Mars - with the current technology.
It costs much money to colonize Mars - with out current technology. Why? Because producing, programming and engineering a spacecraft (and all that stuff) plus sending it (or more than one) to Mars multiple times takes alot of ressources, both from humans and probably also from Earth.
In the future, when our technology is more automatic and robotic, it might be cheaper.

It's obvious that now it is too much expensive and that in the future will be cheaper...

Yes, and that's what I'm pointing out. It is about technology. :)

Technology makes most things cheaper. :)

Technology = 1 = 3 = 5 = Reds = 1A = 17 = 9 = 4 = Lilacs = 88 = 12 = 7 = 5 = Universe = 95

Uh what.
