>>11819763What I mean is that we should replicate Venusian conditions, and try mixes of different bacteria to see how they handle these conditions.
If no bacteria can handle those conditions, we make milder versions of the Venusian conditions and slowly dial these up (pressure, heat, ratios of gasses from Earth to Venus ratios), giving the bacteria, or bacterial mixes (if we need an ecosystem of more than one type of bacteria) time to evolve. Then we deliver these to places in Venus where they'll survive, as many as possible, in a way where they'll change conditions around the planet, or in their area, fast enough that the conditions they can't live in recede.
A limited amount =/= 0. So we should be able to train the bacteria to handle living on smaller amounts.
If necessary, we could even try to breed birds, bats, insects etc. to handle the conditions.
Idk enough about chemistry to work out the specifics exactly. But, otoh, it doesn't matter what I know if we just spam different types of bacteria at analogous but less severe conditions and then slowly dial the conditions in the direction of Benus.
If you have a chemistry angle on this you'd like to elaborate, I would like to hear it, however.
