TIMELAPSE OF TERRAFORMING MARS (Turning Red Green)

40 SpaceX Starships are terraforming Mars. Slowly transforming the Martian atmosphere, water begins to flow on the surface. Building the foundation for long term Mars colonization.
Going beyond the ‘First 10,000 Days on Mars’ and 2050, this is a timelapse look into the future.
Humans are surviving on Mars underground, in a crater habitat. A deep crater is enclosed, creating a mini Earth that is open and breathable. Tunnel diggers dig into the sides of the crater, creating more space and connecting other craters, landing pads, and lava tubes to form an underground Mars colony network..

[@iangordon-brown5407]

Only problem. Mars does not have a molten rotating core, it does not have sufficient mass, to deflect the particles from the sun, so the atmosphere will continue to be stripped away at a rapid rate. The very first thing to do will be to position a very large electromagnet at the stable L1 Mars position to act as an particle deflector.

[@mahande88]

This is the first problem they will need to tackle before any of whats done in this video can be accomplished. Without a magnetosphere, any atmosphere released from the poles will be blown away by the solar winds faster than it can make the atmosphere thicker. Realistically, any settlement of Mars will start off subterranean because the terraforming will take hundreds of years.

[@jebes909090]

thats not the only problem. mars is a toxic barren dead wasteland. theres basically no point in going there. you might as well go to the moon first since its far easier and if you get heavy industry started on the moon it will make doing anything with mars or anywhere else like a million times easier.

[@MPlain]

The movie the Martian was great but showed us a flaw that we would just never achieve. where the hab is a two door setup with pressurized doors. any sort of failure in this system would cause the inner door to not open. and a likely situation for Mars would be an inner set of doors. So... outside door. Inner presurized in between hatch area. and small area to gear up in for outdoors which is also sealed as a redundant safety door. thus creating a 3 doors to outside situation where the worst case situation is a breach to the 3rd door... repairable from other access doors to outside.

Theres never an accurate timeline of the future. People in the past thought we would have flying cars by 2020, but never even considered the internet as a possibility. The truth is we can never truly know what the future holds. Maybe mars will never be terraformed. We might quit halfway. We might not even try to begin with.

[@RavenswoodProductions]

A series of gigantic presumptions are involved here. They include how much water is actually on Mars (we do not know)? What other gasses might be released? What about the perchlorate content? What about the on-going effects of solar radiation blowing off water and gasses? How will the land react? This is a speculative series of actions with a *lot* of variables involved.

Actually, just warming the ice (such as it will be) won't create an atmosphere due to sublimation, (the natural tendency of ice to go directly from solid state to vapor state). With no atmosphere to retain it, it will simply be stripped away from the planet and end up in space. By the way, if you've never seen sublimation, the next time the temperature in your area goes below freezing, hang a towel or bedsheet or something similar outside. The first thing that will happen is that any water molecules in the fabric will freeze into ice crystals. If left alone, the ice will gradually change into vapor and then join the rest of the air in your area. I used to live in an area where it gets very cold in the winter, and my mom would hang bedsheets on her clothesline during the day. A few hours later, they would be as stiff as a board, and by morning they would actually be DRY!

[@literallypatrickbatemen]

One problem with this is something that elon musk said, we can only visit Mars once every 2 years on account of the gravity pulls of the sun and earth itself. So it may take hundreds of years for this to happen Edit: it seems that I've summoned multiple astronomers from nasa into my comments, read at your leisure.

[@idzkk]

How often do people travel from Europe to North America or Australia? I think it’s same in the earth mars case. When new continents were discovered the travel started with sailing ships then came steam engines. air travel significantly reduced the travel time while improving it further with 900kmph jets. In mars case Still the Challenge would be ships should sit idle for 2 years until planets come closer. Another downside is it’s always mission critical operation to launch a ships compared to routine takeoff landings off airplanes

Well he did say it's a " mult- generational plan" it'll take hundred of years for Mars to be suitable for humans and who knows we may make Rocket engines that can cut down the months long trip to Mars to like days so th 2 year gap wouldn't be a problem but even with that it'll still take Centuries for the Terrformtion to be complete

I really enjoy listening to videos like this. It shows how creative scientist can be. These videos are some of the best sci-fi I have heard.

Terraforming Mars will teach us many things about life and how aggressive it can be once given the right thriving environment. ✨️

Mars will become a test facility for human deep space travel, but a planet of this size and desolate condition is impossible to terraform, I fear.

[@pietervanderzwaan4295]

my greatest disappointment is to never witness the completion of the terraforming of mars and other planets in the future as it would take centuries or even milleniums.

[@lisacraig1894]

That’s why the survival pods in the craters are submarines. Basically life support and back up power to help terraform each crater before the waters start. The shops will become shelters and or breading areas for critters.

As beautiful as this project looks like, I wonder if people will be interested in a multi-generation project as the generation that will start it won't see the outcome of it.

[@thomas.parnell7365]

One alternative would be perfect Doming technology to the point be able to dome over large valleys say 1 mile wide to 10 long .not exactly a planet but a small town with a flowing river .better than 100 to 1000 interconnected starship sized habitats. Closest analogy to large enclosed living area on earth is perhaps Singapore airport (indoor forest and massive water feature worth a google) or Germanys indoor rainforest.

People will solve aging before Mars terraformation will start. So it's possible that the first generation will also be present when terraformation is over.

[@SverreMunthe]

Wouldn't you need a magnetosphere before an atmosphere could be built? And to do that, wouldn't you need a molten core inside the planet? And isn't Mars' gravity too low anyway? I suggest trying Venus first, you just have to reverse its spin, add a moon to create a molten core (maybe?), and voila, you have a second earth, not a planet where it will be impossible for humans to live anyway.
