Also, maybe add some biomes, oceans and wildlife. And absolutely no parasitic life forms trapped in there.

Hear me out okay. hits blunt Dyson ring. Maybe we start building it out between earth and Mars. We dig a big ass hole into Mars core and use some kind of laser technology to focus radiation into it perhaps "jump starting" the core. Or maybe we use some kind of cable and gymbal system to run a hard wire into it. hits blunt Then meanwhile we're crashing comets and shit into it to get us some oceans and atmosphere, badabing badaboom we got earth 2.0

You should put that blunt down, buddy.

Well check this out: if it's big enough and can collect enough solar energy, it can be a self-powered gargantuan electromagnet and CREATE a magnetosphere for Mars itself. And the moon has a higher silver content than earth, which a) won't tarnish in the vacuum of space and b) is more conductive than copper or gold!

Aluminum alloy structures, silver circuitry, we could build this thing without sending ANY of it's raw materials from earth. It's all already up there waiting for us... ... Some assembly required :p

I'm sorry I'm just now seeing this reply because that is fascinating
