[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] This brings up an interesting question. Why bother terraforming Mars at all? Timo has already presented the Trek reason for not doing it. But what about here, in real life? I'm fairly familiar with the various space advocacy movements, and support them, but to be philosophical about it, why do we need to terraform Mars? Or, to put it another way, why is a terraformed Mars more valuable than an...aresformed Mars? Because of the existence of life? Piffle, I say. Life is nothing. Just a temporary negentropic effect that's completely canceled out by the larger entropy all around it. I forgot to add my devil's advocate tag. Oh, and while I'm at it, my Liamism for today: Arseform Mars? Surely we have enough of those here on Earth. :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
