I given my thought on terraforming some different turn of events and throwing out the planetary dome. Which I have been thinking about for a long time. Here is my new version and see what you think. I still believe the ammonium nitrate is the way to go and maybe this would work if it could be done safely. Lets say the dome is gone and we are colonizing the planet. What source would we use on our colonies? I would have to say nuclear power. Well, what if the rods were cooled off with ammonium nitrate, and to say this was safe due to certain precautions. And then a process was done to where the solution was turned into water and nitrogen gas. That way the water would collect the radiation and the gas would escape. By means of this on a large scale and for quite a few years would in turn start building the atmosphere. Because we all know that without nitrogen terraforming is partically a waste. Anyways the carbon dioxide is already in abundance on Mars. Next all we need is some nice clean water and if their really is some under the surface than the puzzle would be complete except for the life of course. That would be strictly our part. Not for sure the attributes of nuclear science but i know anything is possible.
I believe that the only way humans will advance in planetary terraforming is a little patience and idealism. I have an idea that if space exploration was more prominant and more people had the interest in space then anything is possible. Imagine this scenario and include the timeline when you picture it. Around the year 2050 space travel between Earth and Mars is down to a two week trip. We now have three space stations surrounding earth and one around Mars. One of the space stations is mainly for construction of interplanetary vehicles. We soon have a docking station for both planets and ecodooms are booming up everywhere on the surface of Mars by 2100 AD. By the time 2200 AD rolls around we now have four Earth to Mars docking stations that go around the equador. Then, we also have two Mars to surface docking stations that are at each pole. The next century starts and we have been transporting materials for the past 200 years and finally have enough to start construction of our planetary greenhouse. With the docking stations in place we can start piecing 6 foot in diameter tubing so that they look like we are building the Epcot around Mars. Keeping maintance on parts and replacing the broken. The year is 2400 and we just completed putting on our extreme solar blanket around the structure. Well you might be asking what is with the solar blanket for. In the mean time of all this; we have been building stratically place bunkers of ammonia nitrate around the entire planet. Each with a very huge rod of plutinium on top. By each bunker we have electric conductors of great magnitude. It is now the year 2500 AD and the temperature of Mars surface is at 800 degrees celcius. As all space stations and the planet is evacuated we throw the biggest New Year party of all times by igniting the ammonia nitrate and causing it to turn into nitrogen gas and water. As fusion with the carbon dioxide takes place from the heat and say we don't blow up the planet, and hopefully the explosion will dismantle most of the greenhouse. Next all we have to do is give it a little nurture as when temperature returns to normal. It is now 2750 AD and algae and bacteria are growing rapid, and we have decided to start planting shrubs and bushes. By the time 2800 is there we are growing trees and laying out the landscape. Could you imagine landscaping an entire planet.
At 2900 AD we start cloning the DNA of animals of Earth and putting into colonies and herds. Of Course it would have to be things as bacteria and germs because some things need those and then with insects and birds. Doing the same with aquatic animals and I'm not for sure of the content the waters will endure from Mars until NASA as done more research. But my dream is that on January 1, 3000 AD people could be plotting their land and building their houses on the new two mooned Earth. This is what I call my Thousand Year Plan starting late.
