Earth 2
Ep. 13) Dr Michio Kaku believes that just like in sci fi, we could transform a neighboring Planet
into a second Earth. Space scientist Geoff Landis demonstrates how we could build floating cities in
the gaseous atmosphere of Venus. The nightmarish conditions on the planets surface lead Kaku to look
farther afield and he meets up with Bob Zubrin from the Mars Society who explains how the Red Planet
could be geo engineered. Mars already has water but its frozen solid, so Chris McKay, a NASA
research scientist, offers an audacious solution- build a huge solar mirror the size of Texas to
melt the Martian ice caps. Michio eventually hits on an even more daring plan- heat up Mars by
shooting asteroids at the planet's surface. The resulting Armageddon will eventually lead to the
birth of Earth 2.0.
