Monsanto is pretty much the reason why genetically-modified foods gets such a bad rap. When you modify crops to bring you a lot of money, instead of doing the best thing for public health and spending so they don't have to continuously buy food from you, they make these retarded seeds that grow plants and then that is it, no more growing from the seeds of that plant. What kind of assfuckery is that?

Also, rotating space stations manufactured from asteroids. Much cheaper than launching payload up, with or without a space elevator.

I'm sorry, have I upset you somehow? If so that was not my intention.

I don't know how well that would work, as you want to keep the people inside warm and carrying a lot of radiators isn't very practical.

Why do you think they call it 'fossil fuels'?

Huh. I thought we'd explained to everyone and their grand-uncle that you don't need 1g gravity for Mars to keep an atmosphere.

>>3619728
Debatable. There's not enough research into low gravity living to know how big of a problem loss of muscle and bone mass would be on Mars.

In freefall, yes. Not in low gravity.

Even if atrophy becomes a big problem, it can be overcome rather a lot more cheaply and efficiently with regular visits to a centrifuge.

And while the first microbes are released into the wild, the people working at it will eat the sweet sweet aeroponic produce.
