There is literally no reason to not terraform Mars by nuking Phobos out of orbit. The amount of dust and debris a collision like that could kick up would be more than enough to start the terraforming process and we have the technology to do this today. Phobos is already going to collide with the red planet so let's take advantage of it.

Give me one good reason we shouldn't nuke Phobos out of orbit, /sci/.
