colonizing mars so the main problem with terra forming mars for instance is that atmosphere is just thing for us to survive there and i've heard the idea that it is possible to thicken marshes atmospheric by releasing the so-called greenhouse gases now here in our nurse we produce this gases from agriculture and waste but why do we get them when lars. right no that's a gets a great question and you know mars has polar caps with water ice and carbon dioxide ice it has a composition very similar to to the earth actually all of the rest real planets have very similar composition so there is methane gas and other other kinds of greenhouse gases that are stored in the planet just like inside the earth so all that is possible but the timescales sofi are really long you know it's it's taken humanity 200 years or so basically since the industrial revolution to start to change our own climate with greenhouse gases like c o 2 to change the climate of a planet like mars which with a much thinner atmosphere would require a lot more time and some pretty industrial scale processing and creation a
