I wish all visitors of my gallery, an excellent weekend of dreams. I hope that those who suffer receive new soothing. Life is priceless and is so short.
Enjoy your visit and ... THANKS!
La terraformation est un thème classique de la science-fiction, inventé par l'auteur américain Jack Williamson en 1940. Il s’agit d’une science qui étudie la transformation de l'environnement naturel d'une planète, d'un satellite naturel ou d'un autre corps céleste, afin de la rendre habitable en réunissant les conditions d’une vie de type terrestre.
Le terme officiel en France est écogenèse[1]. Au Journal officiel du 17 avril 2008, le terme de biosphérisation est imposé en remplacement du terme « écogenèse » proposé dans le Journal officiel du 22 septembre 2000. Le terme de biosphérisation est défini comme la « transformation de tout ou partie d'une planète, consistant à créer des conditions de vie semblables à celles de la biosphère terrestre en vue de reconstituer un environnement où l'être humain puisse habiter durablement. »
L'action primordiale pour y arriver est la modification ou la création d'une atmosphère de composition proche de celle de la Terre, composante essentielle au développement de la vie. On parle aussi d'ingénierie planétaire si l'objectif n'est pas de faire ressembler la planète en question à la Terre.
Chaque candidat à la terraformation présente des conditions qui lui sont propres, rendant le processus spécifique pour chacun d'eux. Les principales études menées concernent la planète Mars. D'autres concernent Vénus, Europe (satellite de Jupiter) et Titan (satellite de Saturne), mais les conditions semblent beaucoup plus difficiles à modifier.
Terraforming (literally, "Earth-forming") of a planet, moon, or other body is the hypothetical process of deliberately modifying its atmosphere, temperature, surface topography or ecology to be similar to those of Earth to make it habitable by terran organisms.
The term is sometimes used more generally as a synonym for planetary engineering, although some consider this more general usage an error. The concept of terraforming developed from both science fiction and actual science. The term was coined by Jack Williamson in a science-fiction story ("Collision Orbit") published during 1942 in Astounding Science Fiction,[1] but the concept may pre-date this work.
Based on experiences with Earth, the environment of a planet can be altered deliberately: however the feasibility of creating an unconstrained planetary biosphere that mimics Earth on another planet has yet to be verified. Mars is considered by many to be the most likely candidate for terraforming. Much study has been done concerning the possibility of heating the planet and altering its atmosphere, and NASA has even hosted debates on the subject. Several potential methods of altering the climate of Mars may fall within humanity's technological capabilities, but at present the economic resources required to do so are far beyond that which any government or society is willing to allocate to the purpose. The long timescales and practicality of terraforming are the subject of debate. Other unanswered questions relate to the ethics, logistics, economics, politics, and methodology of altering the environment of an extraterrestrial world.

Magnifique...J'aime bien
You did it, to a special way to show how something can be transformed. A wonderful image and fractal. It could be a photo of space. Magnifique indeed!
As always oustanding fractal artwork Claude, just love it.
intéressant merci
Looks like rows and rows of crops - but red, not green like on Earth. Nicely done!
intéressant
Fantastice creation and colors.
Cool title and composition!!!
Excellent creation!!
Excellent image Claude and wonderful imformation to go with it. This is a work to be truly proud of.
Nice Box surface, Kansas Wheat fields on Planet Menger. I doubt Mankind will last long enough to either perfect or even try the process of Terraforming in a positive way. We've already perfected the Terraforming process of transforming our Planet to so much lifeless Radioactive Rubble in short order, that seems more our destiny than Farming the Galaxies. Peace
Les roches rouges de Mars baignées par la nouvelle mer, sous la nouvelle atmosphère bleutée...mais les humains de la Terre, à l'origine du projet, ont disparus depuis longtemps déjà !... Superbe composition !! Une très belle image, Claude !! Bravo !!
Fantastic result!! Corrie
Awesome landscape and terrain. The details and colors are fantastic. Your added text of information is a added touch. Great job Claude.
Amazing Creation!....Wow!
Great image, maybe in the future we will have to do this to another planet for our own place to lice.
~A truly amazing planetscape! Wonderful work!~
wonderful looking. It do look like the photos that came from Mars
superb panoramic view excellant work
superlative image!
Magnificent wow !!
IMPORTANT ART WORK!!!!!!!
Very creative and well done!!
Very beautiful picture, with the most lovely colors. We might try terraforming right here on Earth and repair the damage we've done here. Then we'd have some practice before we try Mars. Still what a wonderful idea finding and building new worlds far off in space...
GORGEOUS COMPOSITION, GREAT IMAGE
Superb job of terraforming in this concept of a future Mars, Claude. It looks like a vast grid terrain of trees on the surface. I also see that the planet went from a reddish atmosphere to a blue one.
WOW.......Absolutely fascinating, first class work Claude, well done!
Wow!
Cool!:)
Grande vue ! Magnifique !
