The Billionaire's Dream - Turning Mars Into Paradise

Sources & further reading:

Mars is a disappointing hellhole lacking practically everything we need to stay alive. It looks like we’ll only ever have small crews spend a miserable time hidden underground. Except, we could terraform it into a green new world. But to solve the planet’s problems, we first need to make it worse and turn it into oceans of lava with gigantic lasers.

Considering giant space mirrors have been a key technology in many of these "futurist" videos... it'd be neat to have a video exploring how we could make them, transport them, and keep them locked in the position we need them in!

[jeffulloa]

This all sounds so hard to do, but for a planet without mosquitoes? Absolutely worth it

[capslfern]

imagine pissing off the guy in control of the laser and your house gets deleted

[albatross]

Honestly, these vids just highlight to me just how important it is to take care of our planet, because terraforming another one will take generations upon generations of work.

[Jaydenbb]

It makes my child-like brain very happy knowing how many problems can be fixed with a big laser

[wesleymays]

I like how you actually manage to make a video about _terraforming Mars_ feel like a tutorial

[antek]

Honestly, just love the way you started this one. Like a disappointed father talking about his son: "Mars is a dissapointing hellhole, that can't keep anything alive". Just love it

The fact that today the thumbnail and title was changed from “how to terraform mars with lasers” with the thumbnail being mars getting layered from all sides is insane

[cheapacreeps]

7:55 Using the terraforming laser to annihilate Mosquitoes is a perfectly reasonable decision

[anthonylambert]

I've been planning to do this for a while, and I'm glad they gave a step by step tutorial on how to do terraformation.

Kurzgesagt: "Except, we could terraform it into a green, new world."
Me: "But without mosquitos, right?"

[EpicNerdsWithCameras]

Kurzgesagt in 2019: "Living on Mars would be very difficult."
Kurzgesagt in 2022: "Actually we can just shoot some lasers at it and we're golden."

[tristincryer]

Terraforming an entire planet seems so god-like. The scenes of giant lasers poking through dark clouds looks so unreal and divine, yet in theory it’s entirely possible. So interesting

[RickyCheung-dszd]

yall appreciating this mans videos, but can we appreciate the orbital laser operator that sniped a mosquito from orbital height, man is goated

[randomaccessfemale]

Terraformer: 'How do I use the lasers to finish the terraformation?'
Help desk: 'Have you tried turning it off and on again?'

[imcrowned]

This isn't even a joke, a Kurzgesagt game about terraforming planets would be absolutely incredible

[eggwithsubs]

A lava ocean with giant laser beams shooting behind dark clouds sounds like the final boss area of a video game

[FoxyMSA]

Impressive work! I love "Terraforming Planets" videos!

[mikesherwood]

I like these videos: they don’t lie about the difficulties but they don’t completely spit on the idea either.

[Mangofretchen]

I love how lasers have become the answer to so many things since their invention.
