Introduction

Mars Environment compared to earth

Modifying planet’s environment (※1) to more habitable one for human beings on earth. Mars is the most earth-like of all the other planets in our solar system.


Earth Mars
Atmosphere N2(78%)

O2(20%)

CO2(95%)

N2(2%)

Pressure at Surface [atm] 1 0.007
Temperature at Surface [K] 280 ± 20 180 ± 30


Long term approach for Terraforming

Long term

In long term,

  • 1. Start Point of Terra Forming
  • 2. Microorganisms I (for adaptation)
  • 3. Microorganisms II (for habitat manipulation)
  • 4. Cyanobacteria / Plants
  • 5. Animals
  • 6. Human Beings


Short term

Short term approach for Terraforming

In short term or in those steps, our approach is shown below.

  • Heat Energy Injection.
  • Heat Energy Production.
  • Atmosphere Generation.
  • Organic Matters Accumulation.
  • Water Accumulation.


(Introduction/ideas/story about terraforming)

Approaches

Actually we have four ideas to terraform the Mars.

Consortium

Antifreeze protein

Darker colored E.coli

Cph
