#26 Re: Terraformation » solar intensity - mirrors and solar magnifiers/concentrato » 2005-05-16 13:23:04

Do you feel that if/when Mars is terraformed, that either "solettas" or some type of solar magnifier will play a role?  I envision either a couple mirrors that will basically create the effect of 2 "suns" in the sky a couple degrees apart essentially doubling solar intensity to close to that of Earth, or a giant magnifying glass to do the same.

Do you think this wil be:

necessary?
technologically feasible?
economically feasible?
