Terraforming Mars in 10 years: caseyhandmer.wordpress.com/2022/07/12/how… @CJHandmer explains how solar sails launched from Earth could position themselves around Mars and start heating it to release frozen CO2, starting a slow greenhouse effect. All for just $10 billion, less than 1 JWST.
A gravitational wave observatory stretched out in space, with arms 2.5 million km long. LISA will measure deviations in that distance equal to 1/50th of an atom, to 'hear' events from the first 10 attoseconds of the Universe. @QuantaMagazine article: quantamagazine.org/hopes-of-big-b…
Venus is by far the hottest planet in the Solar System with a surface temperature of 460°C. This temperature can melt lead and is a result of the most extreme greenhouse effect in the Solar System. CO2 is great at trapping heat, and Venus's atmosphere is 97% CO2.

The Trident missile started development in the late 1960s. Its larger upgrade, Trident II, started production in 1983. But the D5 Life Extension Program 2 aims to extend the service life of these missiles to 2084, making the design over a century old by the time it's retired!

From the LunA-10 doc, a lunar foundry. Weighs 5 tons, produces 500t of metal a year, enough to build 55km of rail a year. You could fit 20 of these on a single Starship, which could make 1100km of rail a year, which could make enough rail to circle the Moon in just 10 years.
@A_J_Higgins @lars_0 It won’t make it to orbit either. THz is strongly absorbed by water vapor and has very limited range in air. You would just see THz from the upper atmosphere and maybe from some aircraft up there.
@lars_0 Not my field, but my understanding is that terahertz imaging is “terra incognito” between optics and electronic imaging and has never been done from orbit: THz is from 100 GHz to 20 THz or between 1 mm and 15 μm wavelength.
