terraforming Mars has long been a dream
0:13
of Science Fiction a future where we
0:15
warm up our cold neighbor making it
0:17
suitable for human civilization the idea
0:20
might not be as improbable as it seems
0:23
research published recently suggests
0:26
scientists have proposed an Innovative
0:28
method that could raise Mars temperature
0:30
by over 10° C in just a few months
0:33
possibly making it habitable for future
0:38
Generations the idea of transforming
0:41
Mars into a livable planet has
0:43
fascinated scientists and dreamers alike
0:46
the red planet is currently a frozen
0:48
world with average temperatures around-
0:51
62° C far too cold for human survival
0:56
but what if we could warm it up a new
0:58
study explores this possibility by
1:00
proposing a method that mimics Earth's
1:02
Own greenhouse effect on a planetary
1:07
scale the researchers suggest injecting
1:10
tiny particles into Mars atmosphere to
1:13
trap heat like how greenhouse gases work
1:15
on Earth these particles manufactured
1:18
from materials already found in Martian
1:20
dust could warm the planet enough to
1:23
sustain liquid water a key ingredient
1:30
the particles which are about twice the
1:32
size of Martian dust could be made from
1:34
Iron and aluminum when dispersed into
1:37
the atmosphere these particles would
1:39
absorb infrared radiation from the
1:41
surface and Scatter it back down
1:43
effectively creating a greenhouse effect
1:46
according to computer models this could
1:48
raise Mars temperature by about 10° C
1:55
months however warming the planet is
1:58
just one step in making Mars habitable
2:01
challenges like the thin atmosphere lack
2:03
of oxygen and harmful radiation remain
2:06
significant hurdles even with higher
2:08
temperatures the Martian environment may
2:10
still be too harsh for human life or
