Terraforming: the ultimate cosmic home renovation. In this episode, we dig into what it is, how it might work (if science fiction politely becomes science fact), and whether reshaping entire planets is visionary… or just interstellar hubris. From altering atmospheres to engineering ecosystems, we explore the wild theories, real technologies, and big ethical questions behind humanity’s dream of turning dead worlds into second homes.

TOD’s obsession this week: Planetary Interior Design... He’s been binge-watching Extreme Makeover: Solar System Edition and insists every planet needs mood lighting, geothermal spa zones, and just a splash of lava for ambiance. Mars is getting a skylight.
