What If Mars Was Half Land and Half Water?

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Mars didn-t always look like this. It may have once been covered in oceans. But what if we brought all the Martian water back and transformed the red planet into one that-s half blue? What would Mars look like if it was 50% land and 50% water? Where would we even find enough water to fill Martian oceans? And why might we have no choice but to nuke the red planet?

If Mars were half land and half water, it would likely have a much denser atmosphere and a much warmer climate. This would potentially make it possible for liquid water to exist on the planet's surface, which would make it much more hospitable for life as we know it. However, it is important to note that Mars currently does not have enough of an atmosphere to support liquid water on its surface and it's also unclear whether or not the planet has the capability to generate a magnetic field to protect the water from the solar wind and radiation.

A thought for a Halloween episode; -'What If we shared the planet with Vampires? '-
What's the minimum/ maximum number of humans/ vampires that could be supported without collapse, a la 'Daybreakers'?
How would society function if both had equal human (for lack of a better term) rights?
Could vampires speed up human evolution, or slow it down?
_Could_ it be a symbiotic existence, or the warfare usually shown?
These are my late-night thoughts.

Awesome stuff! I wondered if any reference would be made to the fabulous Red Mars trilogy but I read about 30 years ago. Somehow I don't think they use nukes. :) You sort of did when you talked about how the greenhouse gasses would then allow the possibility of terraforming Mars at the end. I wish I could remember more about that series, maybe when I retire I'll have time to read it again.

Without a rotating core it is all a waste of time. Any work put into putting water will vapourise into space without an EMF. First get the core going then the planet is protected. 2. Pump a shit load of c02 somehow. Thst increases heat with green house effect melting ice- water. 3. Add plants c02 plus plants plus heat and you start to make O2. congrats u have created habitations.

The water boiling away would add to the atmosphere, raising the boiling point until some sort of equilibrium is reached. However, since Mars doesn't have a magnetic field like Earth has, the sun would strip away this new atmosphere, rendering Mars a cold dry airless world again.

Sorry and not sorry to say but this video have no meaning into it at all.
Since that would never happen even if we could terraform planets then we did not want this scenario.
edit: people needs to learn a lot more if they liked this video: P

-You need to live in a dome initially but over time you could terraform Mars to look like Earth and eventually walk around outside without anything on. So it's a fixer-upper of a planet. - -- Elon Musk

Make a video of what if all humans and animals disappear without a trace, only having insects left. What would happen to earth and how do you think insects would evolve or what would happen to earth?

Lol it-s like u never get to the point sometimes lol It-s like I want to know how Life on Mars Would be if Half the planet Can sustain water. just sounds like it-s just not Possible at all
reply

Possibly better idea: turn comets into spaceships. The ice would help protect against cosmic rays and if you could control the outgassing, you could make it more steerable.

I want to know why you're redoing this particular video, you've done it once before I mean a Creator doing multiple videos on the same topic is kind of pathetic.
reply

Oh well bye-bye nukes. And we don't need no more. Sorry for Mars luck. I'm be a good ten years before we'd be able to go there if not longer
reply

I love it. Even tho it's a really bad idea. But Fck it let's nuke Mars to he'll an back. Get rid of ALL of our nuclear weapons.
reply

Great videos, as always. Would love to see a What-If about -Population Collapse. -
I can't find anything like that anwhere.

i thought i was watching a video on what if mars was covered in water. instead i watched a video on how to cover mars in water.
reply

Actually, the water will make clouds, and with clouds come water vapor, with water vapor comes rain, with rain comes water,

You should do a what if All of space had the same air density percentage of gasses and pressure as earth everywhere in space

Please make a video showing what would happen if dragons from How to Train Your Dragon race to the edge world real

Well, This outfit clearly is run by snowflakes and soyboys. Keep woke and political correct shit out this.

Just send out glaciers to Mars, Global Warming wouldn't be as bad without the worry of a planet wide flood.
