The biotech to terraform (or live under domes sustainably) is a longer ways off though. All the attempts to create biodomes I’ve read about have either failed or cheated on a large scale.

The fires in California this past fall? That represented a lot going wrong, but you could still go outside in the Bay Area and breathe. On Mars or in space? Everything goes perfectly except for one little thing, and you are dead instantaneously.
