I think that eventually would be measured in centuries or more. If we are able to solve the engineering challenge of terraforming Mars in the first place this kind of continual housekeeping won’t be an issue.
- rdl 12y agoI wasn't thinking anything this ambitious. We can keep people alive in the crushing depths of the oceans for weeks/months/years at a time; the real limits there seem to be economic. We could do the same thing for tens or hundreds of people on Mars if we really wanted to. Living indoors/underground most of the time, dependent upon certain things being supplied from Earth (but otherwise some kind of closed cycle or local production for anything bulky), etc.
