About This Quote

You need to live in a dome initially, but over time you could terraform Mars to look like Earth and eventually walk around outside without anything on... So it's a fixer-upper of a planet. This quote is an example of how Mars is seen as a "fixer-upper" that needs to be terraformed before humans can walk around on the surface of the planet. It's also an example of how Mars has been treated in the past and how it has been used as a stepping stone for other missions. The quote reinforces how Mars can be used as a stepping stone for other missions and the interesting idea that the planet could eventually become like Earth.
