Terraforming

The hypothetical planetary engineering process of deliberately modifying a planet's atmosphere, temperature, surface topography, and ecology to make it habitable for Earth-like life. It is the ultimate long-term project, taking centuries or millennia, using methods like introducing greenhouse gases to warm a frozen world, redirecting comets to deliver water, or seeding genetically engineered microbes to produce oxygen. It's playing god on a planetary scale, with untold risks and moral implications about the rights of any existing native life.
Example: The classic literary example of Terraforming is Kim Stanley Robinson's Mars trilogy, which details the centuries-long process of warming Mars, creating a breathable atmosphere, and establishing a biosphere. It's the transformation of a dead rock into a living world, a second Genesis for humanity.

craven terrace

Extremely dangerous housing projects in New Bern, North Carolina. Known for their CTP gang (Craven Terrace Projects) drugs and disturbingly high pregnancy rate. Very few make it out of these projects and if they do, they're still to be considered dangerous. One of the toughest projects in a small town. Only the strong survive
