(Nov 15, 2006) Mirrors in orbit around Mars could create Earth-like
conditions on a small patch of the planet's surface, according to a
NASA-funded study. The extra sunlight would provide warmth and solar
power for human explorers, but some experts say the mirrors may be
hard to deploy. Scientists and science-fiction authors have long
dreamed of turning Mars into a more Earth-like planet for future human
colonists.
