    So why not just fix it here where it’s millions of times easier than doing it on Mars

    ¿Por qué no los dos?

    Also, I’m not entirely convinced that the problems are analogous. Mars needs to be warmed up, Earth needs to be cooled down. I think a more appropriate challenge would be terragorming Venus.

      If we can teraform Venus we can teraform the galaxy. The planet is inhospitable in every single way. We can’t even land spacecraft that last very long. If materials don’t melt from the heat and disintegrate from the atmosphere, then the volcanos ought to do the trick.

      It’s also harder to get to Venus than it is Mars.
