Thanks Modest, I lost my calculations of years ago when I first had this idea, I was going to repeat them. Yes there would be problems. On earth tunnels are affected by geological instability caused through techtonics, such activities may not be such a consideration on mars. Will reply more fully later when work allows. Also tunnel would be inhabited during construction thus fully used (unlike tunnels on earth which provide no return until fully completed, thus time and length less of a problem, construction may also be simpler. Another benefit if Mars was always relatively geologically inactive then sub surface strata may be more stable and uniform than that which we tunnel through here on earth.

Thanks again.

I know I seem arrogant but I have thought through my ideas, and am a determined person.

Terraforming Mars is just not going to happen, we can't even keep the earth terraformed at the moment! colonizing Mars is possible but ONLY if it is done the way I laid out above, it can be done using mostly robotics, there's no argument, you know it makes sense!

I can see you have not really read what I put, you are reading what you think I put, my idea is to live sub-surface, the airlock would (at the correct depth) be at a pressure where the depth is equivalent to an equivalent pressure on earth, thus airlocks would no be subject to hundreds of tons of pressure.

Radiation would be zero at that depth. Sufficient power would be generated outside the complex and cabled to the underground agriculture tunnels, I do not anticipate growing food at the surface. All the technology is available.

I'll go for the iridium, they appear as you say and are brief.

IF you want to see lots of fading stars take a bus to hollywood...

You believe in cause and effect ? What has that got to do with cosmology? - one thing you ought to understand very clearly is that the universe does not behave the way humans expect it to, where is the cause and effect of any of the four forces, or of particles popping in and out of existence ?

I'd scrap cause and effect, attempting to apply classical physics to the world of quanta or the super massive is like expecting a rock to behave like a living being. I think you'd do well to spend more of your time understanding the cosmos rather than try and overturn that which science currently considers the most probable [and best supported] theory of the early universe.
