Should we terraform Mars? How would we do it? Why would we do it? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Chuck Nice are here to break down the logistics of putting humans on the Red Planet. You’ll learn why, if we want to warm Mars out of permafrost, it would be a BYOGHG event. You’ll also learn about Elon Musk’s plan to warm up Mars. Chuck ponders the benefits of being a two-planet species. All that, plus, Neil explains why the day we have the power to terraform Mars is the same day we have the power to terraform Earth.

    I feel like Chuck has done these so much he's actually starting to learn some things.

    when people talk about terraforming Mars everyone forgets that before you can give Mars an atmosphere you need to make the magnetic field stronger or the sun will just blow it all into space.

    "Eat a lot of chili" was funny but you got to admire his creativity in finding a solution.
  • @mattbillings3224
    “Welcome to Mars. Here’s a bowl of Chili!” 😂😆😂😆🤣🤣🤣

    This guy is like a bigger version of Kevin Hart.
  • @PaintToSample
    Neil basically claimed this man's arm for himself...

    Love Neil Degrasse. His warmth and humor makes science so much more accessible to the masses.
  • @MountainPirate
    "Has it occured to anyone that we should take care of this planet?" The most important question in this video! Thanks Chuck!

    Their chemistry is so infectious! They make it so accessible, that a 5 year old could watch and it would make some sort of sense. I need people like this in my life

    “Welcome to Mars. Here is your bowl of chilli” 🤣

    We are already in a big crash Inflation is a catastrophe. This CPI report is a colossal failure. To bring the housing market to a halt, the FED will have to pull all the stops. The unfortunate issue is that other markets are being decimated. If you want to stay green, you have to rely on a lot of diversification. Currently up 14% and being careful. Still a better deal than leaving it in a savings or checking account yielding 0-1 percent interest.

    This was great! The camaraderie was awesome and the questions were inspiring. If anything is human-kind's greatest threat, it's itself. Thanks guys!

    I gave a thumbs' up for the Arnie impression. 👍

    You always have to take into consideration that if we had a population of humans on Mars for an extended amount of time, if they tried to come back to earth after a year+ they wouldn’t have the bone or muscle strength to walk or do much of anything.
