@wonderofscience it's missing something...

@wonderofscience Now you could do with some AI to add all the greenery and animals.

@wonderofscience this is nuts!

[vinay@veganism.social]

@wonderofscience This is incredible. As I understand, Mars is just an endless stretch of...this?

And there are people who want to go and live there? And the main guy who is pushing for the idea is taken seriously even as he does his best to reduce Earth and all of its diversity in all of its forms to...this?

Wild times are these.

@wonderofscience Rest of the world:

USA: Hmmm, we could build a huge mall here…

@wonderofscience Looks like the perfect home for Elon. Place him in the next rocket to mars.

This is incredible and beautiful and also captures the world that the extremely UN-incredible and UGLY Elon Musk proposes for humanity's new home to despoil. Not much to ruin. On the bright side.

@benjamincox @wonderofscience Nahh, malls are so 40 years ago. We build data centers now, especially where it's most insane to do so

You blurred the Martian's hand at the beginning of the video?!?!

Well done Simeon Schmauß for successfully working on all this imagery. Goodness knows how long it took.

[thezorse@hear-me.social]

@wonderofscience

I wonder:

(a) what process caused the rocks to be all broken up

(b) what the temperature was at that spot when the clip was captured

We'll just let the Martians pay for it, thru tariffs.

@wonderofscience oh, mais c’est joli ! Bientôt chez nous ça sera pareil !

As fascinating as real-world images of #Barsoom are for my #Astronomy and #SciFi heart:
#Elon's megalomaniacal #Longtermist visions for #Mars have spoilt the planet for me.

Of all the dystopian novels that are being realized, #SyFy and #Amazon's series, #TheExpanse, has been coming to my mind time and again: a world dominated by multinationals and billionaires...
