At what point did we first get an accurate analysis of the atmospheres of Mars and Venus?

Spartan · Jan 24, 2005

Mars in 1976 with the Viking Program. Venus in 1985 with Vega 1 and Vega 2. I think...

Essentially, Stirling is writing a book about alien space bats that seed Mars and Venus (after terraforming them) with human life. What's going on here is Stirling is asking people to research something for him.

What is the proper forum for such requests (info about history and feedback)? Is it the writing forum or the Chat forum?

Joat Simeon is Stirling's username in SHWI.

I doubt Stirling would ask a question that easy for 'research'.
I think its a hoax though why anyone would be sad enough to do that is beyond me.

Maybe Ian will be kind enuff to move this to ASBs, Then whe can write about WI ASBs Gave Mars a Atmosphere, and Oceans. Including the 700 club reaction.
