Mars vs. Earth.

Regardless, we do need to go there and do some terra-forming and establish a human colony. Our population is growing rapidly, and we will need to go there for that reason alone.

About terrraforming:
I said on a space-related site that terraforming Mars would require making it more massive, or else we would be wasting our time with such a small, light palnet.  Add icy comets and Kuiper Belt objects by any means whatsoever to get them there.
(There are several ideas on doing that on this site alone.)

I do like your thoughts on it though.

Thanks.  I think long and hard on the subjects of this site.

But wont that gravity changing idea screw-up the solar path of all the other planets ?

No not really, how often do we pass by mars in a year?

The Martian period of yearly rotation is about twice Earth's.  What ever the proportion is?  Twice?

So that is two days out the year less sun light?  Sound about right to everyone else?
