  1. We can consider three possible responses to the discovery of indigenous life on #Mars 🔴

    • Leave it alone
    • Alter Mars to enhance the chances of that biota to become a global scale biology
    • Collect samples for laboratory preservation, then replace or augment it with #terrestrial life forms

    It is very unlikely that we would drive to extinction any native #Martian #microorganisms 🦠 by extending the habitability of Mars

  2. It may be feasible to fabricate tiny reflective #nanorods from iron and aluminum found in the #Martian soil and launch them into the #atmosphere. “The interaction of those particles with the incoming sunlight ☀️ would then cause that solar energy to be preferentially forward scattered to the surface. That would then cause a very strong #greenhouse effect, and we can warm it up several tens of degrees.” 🌡️ ucf.edu/news/ucf-planetary-sci

  3. Scientists have speculated about the possibility of introducing #Chroococcidiopsis 🦠 to the #Martian 🔴 environment to aid in the formation of an aerobic environment. In addition to #oxygen production, Chroococcidiopsis could aid in the formation of #soil on the Martian surface en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chroococ

  7. Martian Memories

    an 8-images mosaic captured by the Spirit rover somewhere on the top side of the Home Plate plateau. On that day, the robot was targeting an outcrop called "Texas Chili".

  8. Dear Friends of #make-do,

    As we know, having everything is only
    #possible for Billionaire #Martian children (when available). At the moment, most of the #Gaia/Earth has to do with limited #time and #resources. We therefore need:

    - Eternal Life (when available)
    ​:blobcatstrong:​
    - Columbian modified with cocaine DNA coffee (when legalised)
    ​:ablobcatcoffee:​
    - Task jugglers
    🤹‍♀️
    - Help from other dimensions (as available)
    🫂

    Fortunately, we have many such fledging back burner projects being passed on to the Next Generation of Trekkies/
    #hackers Internet Elders and #Middle #Earthers. For example ​:blobcatcool:​

    1. Cat
    #herders

    #Sustainable #Urbanites

    Personally, I am growing high class
    #edible #weeds. Today I am on the lookout for #nasturtiums which have edible #leaves, #flowers and climbing over #obstacles #talents, for example me.

    Remember, every little helps. Be the
    #difference. Stay negative and #positive. We are the Arc/Ark welding. Yep, sparks from #nowhere and #everywhere ... ​:gi:​ ​:ablobcatbongokeyboard:​ 🎉

  9. #MarsCuriosity rover’s ‘postcard’ of #MarkerBandValley.

    The #Curiosity team released a beautiful new image of #Martian morning and afternoon. An artistic interpretation of the landscape unveils the enigmatic beauty of #Mars, capturing the essence of a world beyond our reach.
