:We don't know. Sometime before the war. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 02:21, 26 September 2006 (UTC) | :We don't know. Sometime before the war. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]] 02:21, 26 September 2006 (UTC) | ||

---I think that mars probably was fully terraformed. I regard many of the illustrations in the comic books as bordering on non-canon, because for Misiriah to be there, it would have to be somewhat terraformed. It looked a lot like earth in the video of the ships being resupplied over Misiriah Armories.

The comics '''are''' canon, so that means Mars wasn't completely terraformed, maybe it wasn't terraformed at all. As you can see from the [[Arms Race]] video, the landscape is kind of reddish, and you can indeed spot some water and a few strings of grass, but that's it! --[[User:UNSC Trooper|<font color="darkblue">UNSC Trooper</font>]] | The comics '''are''' canon, so that means Mars wasn't completely terraformed, maybe it wasn't terraformed at all.

The lack of flora isn't that surprising really. What many people forget about the concept of terraforming Mars is its weak magnetic field, leaving the planet vulnrable to UV rays. Although human technology could terraform a planet, I doubt that it could re-activate a planetary core. As such, only UV resistant plants could survive, humans having to keep themselves sheltered.--[[User:Hawki|Hawki]] 12:00, 19 December 2007 (UTC) | The lack of flora isn't that surprising really.

Heating up the core and creating a magnetic field wouldn't be as hard as it sounds, anyways I think if the comics are the only evidence that it wasn't terraformed they should be disregarded after all they might just have got lazy and drew mars as we see it today. in short I agree with "Light Gaunt" in this respect | Heating up the core and creating a magnetic field wouldn't be as hard as it sounds, anyways I think if the comics are the only evidence that it wasn't terraformed they should be disregarded after all they might just have got lazy and drew mars as we see it today. in short I agree with "Light Gaunt" in this respect | ||
: You can't disregard a canonical source without a VERY good reason. And "they might have just got lazy" certainly isn't a good reason to dump the comics or any OTHER Bungie-supervised material. --[[User:UNSC Trooper|<font color="darkblue">UNSC Trooper</font>]] | : You can't disregard a canonical source without a VERY good reason.

How could you possibly just "heat up the core"? ask me, sounds like nukes and drills. And that seems quite difficult.

:No, because that's from a non-Halo-related source. We only accept official images, otherwise we might as well use fan art. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 01:13, June 16, 2010 (UTC) | :No, because that's from a non-Halo-related source.
