Water losses for Venus and Mars
As always, I allow that the moderators are completely free to modify this topic and post without my resentment.
Many things are talked about here in this video so patience will be required. About 25% of the way though the video, he says that apparently for Venus, the total amount of water that would have been lost to space over 3.9 billion years, would be no more than .02 to .6 Meters of liquid.
And he seems to say that Mars would not have been much different per loss rate to space over that period of time.
And then he speculates that the water may have gone underground, and that these planets lack a method to bring it back out of the planet to the surface.
So, that is quite a new set of notions.

Actually, about minute 8.06 of 42.54 is where that discussion begins in the video.
It seems to indicate that giving a magnetosphere to Venus or Mars will not do that much good as per terraforming results.
Done
