Changes: Terraforming

Revision as of 23:07, 26 November 2016

Terraforming was the process of modifying the environment of a planet or moon to make it habitable for life found on class M planets.

Its converse is bioforming, which is the process of adapting a species to the planet.

Blue Horizon (DS9: "Second Sight")
Browder IV - a project that was assisted by the starships USS Hood and USS Enterprise-D in 2366 (TNG: "Allegiance")
Caldos colony - established in the 22nd century (TNG: "Sub Rosa")
Doraf I - in 2368, the Enterprise-D was scheduled to undertake a terraforming mission here (TNG: "Unification I")
Genesis Planet - created in 2285 from the Mutara Nebula, but destroyed as a result of the Genesis Device, which contained protomatter (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan; Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)
Mars - as of 2155, conditions on Mars were sufficiently altered to allow Humans to survive on the surface by only having to use small breathing gear and thermal insulation (ENT: "Demons")
Moab IV - site of the Genome colony (TNG: "The Masterpiece Society")
New Halana (DS9: "Second Sight")
Regula - a Class D planetoid whose interior was terraformed as the second phase of Project Genesis (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
Velara III - site of the Velara Base; mission abandoned in 2364 after life was discovered on the planet (TNG: "Home Soil")
Venus - site of several terraforming stations by the 24th century (DS9: "Past Tense, Part I")
Weytahn - a Class D planetoid terraformed by the Andorians for habitation in the 2050s (ENT: "Cease Fire")

The universal atmospheric element compensator might also be a terraforming device.
