264 264  These self-replicating drones have been outfitted with logarithmic brakes to prevent a runaway scenario at a fundamental level while still allowing them to react to demand at the proper scale. In addition, they are controlled by specialised AI systems which lack the capability to alter their own programming. This makes them a safe, if less effective, version of the original Terraformer designs.

272 272  With a healthy microbiome, we can begin to make the land arable. This requires soil with sufficient drainage, the right pH, necessary nutrients in plant-accessible form, and all of that at a depth sufficient for roots to take hold. A significant effort, to be sure, but absolutely necessary before any large scale settlement can take place.
