Don't yell at me about it

I'm just reporting what I know.

Besides, I expect the whole Sol system to be turned into a Dyson Shell long before
the Sun starts getting old, and that too can be taken care of by regular injections
of hydrogen and helium.

- Might not work because any atmosphere released by heat would soon be lost - David F Mayer - 4/13/2009 2:15:18 AM
  - What a load of crap - Adam - 4/17/2009 8:12:48 AM
    - Source, please. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 4/17/2009 1:49:17 PM

        as the Sun's activity declined... - nick hoffman - 4/18/2009 1:21:22 PM
        
        thanks for the reminder - Adam - 4/18/2009 9:15:48 PM
  - Not necessarily - FrankC - 4/13/2009 7:50:45 AM
    - I don't see colonization of Mars as intractable. - David F Mayer - 4/13/2009 3:58:52 PM
      - Moving it closer though - azstrummer - 4/13/2009 9:05:39 PM
        
        Moving it closer would be VASTLY more expensive than any alternative. - David F Mayer - 4/14/2009 2:57:58 AM
        
        Hey, if we're dreaming - azstrummer - 4/14/2009 3:09:49 PM
        
        It is NOT dreaming to propose a human colony on Mars. - David F Mayer - 4/14/2009 4:45:31 PM

  - Oh I've thought about that - azstrummer - 4/12/2009 7:07:13 PM
    - Why not move Earth instead? - Socrates II - 4/13/2009 3:27:13 AM

        Actually moving a planet is quite feasible - mip - 4/18/2009 3:17:39 AM

        I like Science Fiction as well as the next guy, but let's stay with reality. - David F Mayer - 4/14/2009 5:01:35 AM
        
        But if you take the Sol system apart... - Socrates II - 4/15/2009 1:55:39 PM
        
        I don't look that far ahead. I am interested what is possible with FORESEEABLE extensions of known principles. (n/t) - David F Mayer - 4/17/2009 5:36:57 AM
        
        Well, anybody can do that (n/t) - Socrates II - 4/17/2009 2:37:51 PM
