androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-17 05:34:25

futurism.com Unknown 2026-03-17 22:45:29

Terraforming, the act of radically transforming a planet's climate and environment to make it suitable for human habitation, currently belongs to the realm of science-fiction. But it's possible, at least in theory, and the idea of terraforming our nearest candidate planet for off-world colonization, Mars, has captivated us for generations.
