Long-horizon — largely theoretical today
Why it matters
It would let humanity become a truly multi-world species with self-sustaining biospheres beyond Earth.
Where it stands
Entirely theoretical; it would require planetary-scale engineering over centuries and raises profound ethical questions.
How ASIZ approaches it
The discovery loop, applied.
Through the Space Systems center, ASIZ aims the discovery loop at terraforming: frontier models survey the literature and simulate the possibilities, rank the experiments most likely to resolve the open questions, and partner labs run the decisive ones — with results shared openly.
