so on the last thread, a bunch of anons actually had a very good idea on how to set a base on venus with minimal waste for future habitation.
the cost were reduced by setting sky hooks on the orbits of both earth and venus thus making it easy to transport stuff.
then setting probes of maxwell montes and the stable wind current that are on the same location, setting a seismometer will be doable and the probes in the habitable zone will deliver important data.
then on living there, at first a swarm of zeppelins would be effective until another anon realized you can use the square cube law in your favor thanks to the conditions on venus and making a cloud city a viable option.

I believe we should apply both ideas at once.
the cloud nines could also collect the run away deuterium in the upper atmosphere and generate a trade with earth, a form of currency via deuterium trade.
the habitable space on the planet could be set as a personal laboratory for earth's further technological development.
if we master venus, then we can inhabit the gas giants and use the moons for resources.
though venus it's still a LONG term investment don't you think? it'll take at least 10 generations before we see proper returns from venus development.
but hey, if we all work together and develop technology on venus, we could end up with a proper mastery of solar system, even if we never figure out a way to set out into the stars, we can still make our own solar system a proper fortress.
also if we coat with teflon the zeppelins, it'll be protected from acid, with aquaponics and indoors I'm sure we can make people life easy, shit we could set a aquarium and recycling system to make it as efficient as we can for a manned group to survive for 2 years or more.

yes it is possible
like a venus colony
