I recommend the same atmospheric processor used on LV-426 ... however, extra shielding might be prudent around the primary heat exchangers ... they tend to leak if hit by standard 10mm armor piercing round ...
and watch out for bugs ...

we are talking about undertaking massive projects that would wipe out all these indigenous lifeforms, all the strange microbes that we hope to find buried in the Martian soil. It is simply ethically wrong. This can be the next great cause of the Left -- no unethical extermination of native Martian microbes!

Do these people wear tinfoil hats?
Guess they need to come up with these 'theories' in order to get millions more tax dollars in order to continue to have employment.
I classify such comments with the low flush toilet that needs to be flushed two or three times and ends up using twice the amount of water and the low flow shower heads that cause you to use twice the amount of water just to get the soap out of your hair.

Depending on whether or not it is possible... a BIG IF!
The greening of Mars could be the equilent of the Americas to Old Europe. The New Pioneers could leave behing old hatreds and grudges(no more calls for reparations and colonialism)
Leaveearth to the losers to fight among themselves as the real producers and thinkers create a new world based upon one's own ability and skills.
I say: Go to Mars, Young Man, er Young Persons!

Typical leftist drivel. We go one inch into the universe and we are ruining it.
Life on Mars has never existed in any form. The planets are for our amusement, provided by God. Earth is life and life is on earth.
God may have other planets going on with life abundant, but He designed it so we will NEVER meet. You cannot trump God.

My point is (and please take this as a loving rebuke) that when you complain about behavior and then throw out sarcasm, it dilutes your point.
I am so tired of the looney self-haters subbordinating the human race to rare gnats, endangered snails and now, frikkin germs! for crying out loud!

You would have to send them at night so they would be able to land.

I've heard estimates of upwards of a trillion dollars and more for the projects needed to accomplish the scope of the operation needed to colonize much less terrafrom Mars..
