“Reality is self-creating by definition… our impressions of it are what we use to build knowledge.”
- Michael Alan Prestwood

Empiricism
We never meet reality directly — we meet our impressions of it. But those impressions are enough to build understanding, truth-seeking, and meaning. Instead of chasing certainty, we work with what we perceive, refining our picture as we go. Knowledge grows from experience, not perfection.

FAQ
What is a realistic timeframe for humanity to terraform Mars?
- June 1, 3825.
- J.K. But realistically, maybe within 2,000 years.
The Civilization-Scale Commitment
Robots and AI-driven systems need to warm Mars, thicken its atmosphere, and prepare its soil before humans can breath Martian air. Genetically engineered microorganisms will be first, reshaping barren ground . Humans will there during all this, but living in domes, not outdoors.
