Would it be possible to like, melt the core of mars and get it spinning?
What sort of energy requirements would we be talking about here?

way more than creating an artificial magnetic field

But at a planetary scale?

Wouldn't the energy requirements be the exact same amount?

Or are you including the start up and oh godamnit wtf am I doing?

Likely in the Northern UK, Denmark, Scandanavia, Iceland. I think last G2 they saw them in Germany?

So this is going to wipe out all our satellites, fry the power grid and cook all electronics.

Bring on the new dark age!
