How about a thread about the possibilities on what we can do with Mars?

Terraforming, etc.

I'm really interested in the possibilities.

I'm excited about the concept of melting it, separating the melted iron and making a huge power armor for myself from it all.

Though I'm told that a fair few extra nukes would need to be used (think over a million)

Begin search for life, starting with 2 year long individual missions and then the building of a permanent Martian base.
No life is found
*a century or two of nothing really going on with Mars*
Colonization begins in the form of mining corporations. Space elevators are easy peazy on Mars. Huge amounts of minerals are sent up into space and flung from the elevator using Mars's own angular momentum.
Mars population breaks a million, terraforming begins.
Comets throughout the solar system are slowly redirected towards Mars. They are burnt up in aorobraking decelerations, realeasing their essential substances like water and buffer gases.
Most shipments of supplies from Earth are transported cheaply via solar sail. Upon reaching Earth the solar sails are cannibalized and integrated into an ever increasing array of orbital mirrors.
Sick of complete metanational control, the population of Mars revolts against purely business run bureaucracy of a government and claims sovereignty.

Can you, like, scale that down? I don't have a screen large enough to read that easily, and it looks like the font has plenty of room to scale down.
