Only if we terraform it.

But yes, I hope we are going to terraform it. If we could live on two planets nothing can destroy us! Except when the Sun becomes a red giant ofc, but then we might be able to fly to other star systems.
I really hope we will be able to live on Mars one day. Wonder how long time it would take to terraform it before it becomes habitable.

Earth will evaporate its oceans and mars life begins

We might begin colonizing Mars long before the sun evaporates our oceans. Terraforming a planet is a whole other ordeal altogether though.

Well, technology is getting learned from most of the people of the world. We can terraform the planets, and our moon. Also, we may terraform Luna first.

The problem is that we would need to make technology that could change the elemental materials, because there's no way we could terraform the planet by bringing stuff from earth.. not soon anyways.

AND DAMN I WANT THIS TF2 UPDATE.. The steam servers are getting so overflown by people downloading it that I can't.

The problem with terraforming the moon is that it a very weak gravity: The athmosphere first, and the oceans leater will escape from his surface (if we will able to terraform it)...

Another problem with this....transporting people to mars.

FGFG · « **Reply #14 on:** May 24, 2009, 10:28:43 PM »

that won't be a problem. We already colonised America. We will colonise another planet when most of the people can afford it and the jurney isn't too long. Or the travels could be financed by big corporations who wants to start a new buisness there

monmarfori · « **Reply #15 on:** May 24, 2009, 10:48:07 PM »

We will ride a space ship to reach mars

hbmp88 · « **Reply #16 on:** May 25, 2009, 09:18:56 AM »

Good point. The Virginia Company financed Britain to start colonies and big corporations can also do that when we will colonize other celestial objects.

that's exactly what i meant.

I have a map of Mars and Venus. Ill post it later. Sorry!

Here ya go.

Mars could be cononized even without being terraformed.
One of the problems, though, is that Mars is out of the habitable zone, so you would need to thicken the apmosphere.
You would also need to heat it up since the core has probably sollidified.
