So you're telling me there isn't going to be a Venus colony for a while

I played surviving Mars recently a fun game where you terraform Mars. Now I'm imaging terraforming Venus would a 100 times harder.How would the greenhouse gasses be dealt with to begin with.

Surviving Mars is a real fun game I love but its terraforming is basically magic. Even ignoring that it badly underestimates the difficulty of dealing with sub sub sub microscopic dust and food grown in Martian dirt/Martian rainfall would be chock full of perchlorates, the effects of which science currently describes as "we're not sure but probably bad". Colonising Venus with aerostats would be easier if only because nobody would be expecting to be able to go outside.

Of course europa is where it's really at :v:

Is there a good reason to go to Venus, apart from cool science things? It seems like it's a huge ball of hot acid vapors that will actively try to murder anything that gets too close.

Sounds like my ex wife![/boomer comedian]

let's take half of venus's atmosphere and put it on mars. this will solve all our problems

OK so everyone breathe in real hard next time we pass Venus but we need to time it right so we've gone past before the gas hits.
