Terraformed Mars, seen from the surface of its outermost moon, Phobos, computer artwork. Mars is shown with oceans of liquid water following a future terraforming. This process, which involves changing the climate so it is more habitable, would be carried out to allow humans to colonise the planet. Mars is currently a cold, desert world, with no liquid water. On the terraformed Mars, cities are seen glowing on the planet's night side. The innermost moon, Deimos, is the small rock at lower centre, moving across the face of Mars, as seen from Phobos. On the surface, Olympus Mons, the largest mountain in the solar system, is on the coastline at upper left.
