Terraformable Earth-like?

[Nordmarken]

Sorry for the necrobump but the elw seems to have been "fixed". It's now a hmc terraformable.

Not only a 'NoNo' for necro bump, but also one for not reading the thread, as it was already answered

Still, kind of sad that this isn't another 'unique' asset in the galaxy...
And made me think, which are the 'one of a kind' - wonders we have!?

• SgrA*
• this only one helium rich GG in the core
• Mitterand Hollow

Anything else?

Planet adjustment wiped a few quite a while back, there was the 30klm deep crater, the mountain top you could drive off into orbit, all gone! There was a thread of galactic wonders somewhere if I recall.

The Helium Gas Giant in Ooch Chrea US-U d2-21 is still there.
Helium Rich Gas Giants are a different breed.

One onf the lost wonders are glowing pink gas giants.

Well, it was rather early in the morning....

If you replace the nitrogen with helium (which does not have a narcotic effect) you can go to much higher pressures - this is what deep-sea divers do - but the Stellar Forge appears to be incapable of giving Earth-like planets a high-helium atmosphere.

Sorry for the necro, but this is too silly to be its own post. I would expect some corporate faction or a rocket cult to actually try to terraform a planet into a helium (or neon) + oxygen atmosphere for human productivity -- allegedly nitrogen is narcotic even at atmospheric pressure!

There will be hurdles in maintaining an ecosystem that way though. You would want at least some N2 so the biosphere gets its share of nitrogen fixation done, or you'd have to distribute all the nutrients manually. The biosphere also returns fixed nitrogen back to N2 (denitrification) when it's done with it, so your fertilizers will be emitting N2 eventually anyways.
