Terraforming

Terraforming is the term used to describe the proccess of altering a planet's biome to better suit its future inhabitants. Most commonly planets of unsavory nature will be converted into temperate worlds with complete atmospeheres, allowing them to sustain life.
== Terraforming Methods ==
=== Doming ===
Using specialized equipment small "domes" are created which, on their own, are capable of sustaining life. The domes are not real atmospheres but rather advanced shields coupled with oxygen (or alien equivalent) generators.
=== Seeding ===
Used by the UNGSI and, later on, Sol this long and diffifcult method was used at the start of the space-age colonial era. Ships carrying advanced chemical compounds would regularly "seed" a planet, eventually creating a layer of ozone as well as a preliminary atmosphere alongside it.
Once the seeding was complete advanced machinery on the ground was put into place to reinforce the effect and make it permanent. However it is to be noted that seeding is not a flawless method and in some cases holes erupt within the artificial ozone layer, among other issues.
