	First off the lost Hydrogen would have to be replaced.  Secondly I
believe the current trends talk about placing sun shades in orbit to reflect
the solar radiation.  This should be much easier to do than changing the orbit
of something as massive as Venus.

Good grief.  Is this some kind of competition for the most bizarre things
to do to make another planet liveable?

What's wrong with just protecting the planet we're living on now?

  Channel 9's signal (re-)originates from Wonderful Windsor, just south of
Detroit. I would have guessed ch 32 was TVOntario, from Windsor, but I don't
think they air ST:TNG.

At 8:04 PM CDT I saw a bright orange-yellow bolide from
Wheaton, IL. It was just about due east near the horizon,
south of the rising moon. It appeared to be moving towards
the northeast. I actually saw it through a window from inside
my house. I could be mistaken, but I've seen bolides before
and this looked like one, for sure.

Anybody else see it ?

I've never used an Astroscan, but for about the same price you could
get other RFT-type instruments that might have some advantages.
University Optics in Ann Arbor (I've had very good luck with them) has
11x80 and 20x80 binoculars for $275, and a nice 80mm f/6.5 refractor
kit for $289 (no ocular supplied). I started with a Celestron 80mm f/5
spotting scope that was very well constructed and came with 45 degree
Amici prism and 18mm orthoscopic ocular. A good RFT that I should have
kept, in retrospect, though the 45 degree prism suffered from annoying
diffraction spikes on bright objects. I've seen it advertised for
between $275 and $340. It's called the SS-80. Orion has a similar scope,
the Omni Vista 80 for $249 + $5.69 s&h, to which you'd need to add
an eyepiece ($40-up) and perhaps a diagonal. May be the same Japanese
import with a different label.
 
Anyways, that's my beginner's perspective.
 
Of course, to any of the above you'd need to supply some sort of mount.

     I agree, would seem to me to be a lot less morally objectionable to
"pollute" (if this is the right term, I don't think it is), a lifeless planet
then a planet teaming with life that will be damaged.  If the technology was
there I think it would be morally the RIGHT thing to do.

     Of coarse this makes a few more assumptions than that solar energy is the
power source for the change.  It also makes the assumption that only the solar
energy that mars naturally captures is the source.  What about giant space
mirrors to enlarge the capture area?  Or the possibility that some day we might
be able to get controlled hydrogen fusion to work, or for the purpose of
terraforming maybe not so controlled (as in H-bombs) fusion would do the trick.

     I guess what I'm getting at is that the assumption isn't necessarily
valid.  Certainly we have the technology to make large light mirrors now.

The popular authorities are at variance with one another on this
burning issue.  My old ( 1964 ) Peterson Field Guide equates a bolide
with a fireball, as does my old Abell. ( The new Peterson's dropped
the term bolide altogether. )

The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Astronomy agrees with you, and
some take a middle ground saying, for example "especially one that
explodes". I think Norton's agrees with you, too - I forget.

I have a really old ( 1898 ) book of popular astronomy which
doesn't use the term at all, even though it has several detailed
descriptions of meteor falls.
