Die Idee, den Mars zu terraformen, ist in der letzten Zeit zu einem Thema von großem wissenschaftlichem Interesse und umfassender öffentlicher Diskussion geworden. Das Terraforming, das teilweise durch die aktuelle Notwendigkeit angeregt wird, auf der Erde Geoengineering zum Kampf gegen den globalen Klimawandel einzusetzen, soll die derzeit lebensfeindliche Umgebung auf dem Mars lebensfreundlicher machen ? insbesondere für menschliches Leben. Geoengineering und Terraforming haben im Kern dasselbe Ziel: Sie sollen eine bestimmte Umgebung so verbessern (oder wiederherstellen), dass darauf menschliches Leben, Gesellschaft und Industrie möglich sind. Die Artikel in diesem Buch, die von Experten auf ihrem jeweiligen Gebiet verfasst wurden, stehen daher im Einklang mit der wichtigen, anhaltenden Diskussion über die menschliche Verantwortung für globale Klimasysteme. Daher ist das Buch aktuell und relevant und beschäftigt sich mit der Problematik von Themen, die in den kommenden Jahrzehnten noch an Bedeutung gewinnen werden. Der Gedanke, den Mars zu terraformen, ist an sich nicht neu und bildet schon lange das Gerüst für zahlreiche Science-Fiction-Romane. Dieses Buch befasst sich jedoch ausschließlich mit dem, was physikalisch möglich ist und was innerhalb der nächsten Generationen der Menschheit möglicherweise in die Praxis umgesetzt werden könnte.
