Hi

Long thread, haven't had time to read it in its entirety yet.

While most are probably thinking of how to cool down Venus, I'm thinking of heating it up sufficiently to get rid of most of its atmosphere.

By placing orbital mirrors to deflect sun rays toward Venus. Once the atmosphere has reduced enough the mirrors can simply be turned away.

With the thinned atmosphere Venus should cool down.
