To inhabit Mars, we would need first to create an atmosphere. Currently, the Carbon dioxide level is at 95.97% which is not so good for any living organism. It can take thousands of years to terraform an entire planet. To make the air on Mars breathable, humans used a combination of different techniques.

1. Solar Mirrors heat the Planet
2. Crash large icy comets into the surface to thicken the atmosphere

3. Large terraforming factories produce atmospheric gases
4. Terraforming factories continues for hundreds of years
