Planetary Remaking (Paperback)
Print on DemandSeller: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Imagine a future where humanity reshapes an entire planet, transforming barren Mars into a vibrant, living world. But beyond the staggering scientific possibility lies a profound ethical quandary: Is it right? From heating polar caps with powerful greenhouse gases to redirecting comets and even envisioning a restored magnetic field, Planetary Remaking: Possible vs. Right delves into the cutting-edge science and engineering that could make Mars habitable. Drawing on insights from leading experts like Martyn J. Fogg, M. M. Marinova, and Robert M. Zubrin, this book explores the ambitious proposals to thicken Mars's atmosphere, melt its vast ice reserves, and initiate a runaway greenhouse effect, painting a vivid picture of the technological marvels required for such an endeavor. It's an exploration of applied planetary science at its most audacious, examining the precise steps and gargantuan efforts needed to transform a world. Yet, the dream of a "blue Mars" is fraught with immense challenges and deep moral questions. Could Mars's low gravity and lack of a global magnetic field prevent a long-term, stable atmosphere? What are the implications of perchlorate salts for nascent ecosystems, and how would Earth-based life adapt? More fundamentally, as Kim Stanley Robinson poignantly asks, are we "destroying a masterpiece, and replacing it with a forgery" by imposing our will on another world? This book confronts the astrobiological ethics and ecological impacts of planetary transformation, urging readers to consider the true cost and responsibility of such monumental planetary engineering. Beyond the technical hurdles and ethical debates, this essential read explores humanity's place in a multi-planetary future. From the psychological and physiological adaptations of Martian-born humans to the potential for new societies and cultures, Planetary Remaking examines the full spectrum of what it means to become a truly interplanetary species. Featuring perspectives from science fiction luminaries like Kim Stanley Robinson and Ursula K. Le Guin, alongside real-world pioneers like Elon Musk, this book offers an unparalleled, multidisciplinary exploration of the ultimate human frontier, blending hard science with philosophical inquiry into our collective destiny. Whether you're an aspiring space colonist, an ethics enthusiast, or simply captivated by the future of humanity, Planetary Remaking: Possible vs. Right is your definitive guide to the most ambitious project ever conceived. Engage with the science, grapple with the ethics, and decide for yourself: Should we remake a planet, and what kind of future will we build among the stars? We could transform Mars into a living world, but is it right? Grapple with the ethics of terraforming. A pilsa book for transcriptive meditation. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781608884001
