Terraforming - Could Mars become a new Earth? l A Better Question EP. #6.

What is Terraforming and why do we call it that? Is Terraforming possible? How do we change the climate of another planet? Can we terraform Mars into a world just like Earth?

In this episode we explore the concept of making a new Earth in the Solar System, we look at the strange ways a few planets got their names, and we catalog a few of the needlessly creative ways other planets will straight-up murder you.
