Are they killing more rich people?

Send the San Francisco shoplifters.

Isaac Asimov wrote some stories set on Venus. It's possible with the right equipment (that we don't have).

Can we just lock up all these mad scientists before they murder someone else, please?

LOL. I cant imagine this guy going "hey we had a catastrophic failure under water, lets try SPACE!!!"


would love to be at some of the meetings

Obvious humor aside...

Theoretically you could change Venus' atmosphere by scraping gasses and/or creating a huge solar shield to terraform into a livable planet (which would be great considering its gravity is about 91% of Earth's so gravitational effects on bones and such wouldn't be as problematic as with the moon, space stations, or Mars). The problem is that it would take centuries of continual work to do, and way too much money.

An interesting and curious thought though nonetheless. I hope one day mankind is self sustainably living on other planets. It's the only way to guarantee the survival of the only known sentience in the universe.

If the Earth is 6,000 years old, how old is Venus?

Many years ago, I read an article about a plan to terraform Venus using some sort of bacteria or algae or something. Apparently this organism likes to eat the stuff that's currently in Venus' atmosphere and then it belts out the waste as something that doesn't trap heat as much. I don't remember the details, but either it spit out oxygen, or you do another phase with a different organism that takes in CO and spits out O2. The author was arguing that you could terraform Venus pretty inexpensively by dumping some of this stuff into the upper atmosphere and then waiting a hundred years. I was intrigued.

Venus isn't real it was put there around 5k years ago to test your faith.

Interesting. I've never heard of this. I'll have to do some digging and see what I can find on this. Of course, whatever lives there has to be able to survive at like 900 degrees Fahrenheit, so it'll have to be some really resilient (probably bio-engineered) bacteria!

This article from a website I've never heard of references the idea as being proposed by Carl Sagan in 1961, but says that barriers have been identified that make it impossible. Darn it. The proposal offers some other methods, but they aren't as easy as a fire-and-forget organic solution.
