Raising Mars' temperature by a few degrees will cause enough CO2 sublimation to raise the air pressure to about 300 millibars, and create oceans. If by some crazy circumstances I become a billionare and using space elevators or *insert cheap transport technology here* is cheap enough I would attempt to build massive geostationary mirrors with Phobos' minerals to shine extra sunlight and heat on the poles. However I do not think this will come to pass.

I guess.

For very low gravity worlds transport can be achieved by launching people through railguns directed at where they wish to be.

Is there any theoretical way to change a planet or moon orbit without causing extensive damage to it?

I am interested in the possibility of moving some of the Jovian moons closer to the sun.

Can this also be a Mars thread? :3
