I don't know why anyone would be interested in listening to a talk about colonizing or terraforming a planet in our solar system, which is at least thinkable with our current understanding, by a man that has no science background whatsoever.
I would be very skeptical of other current year sci-fi authors knowledge too, but this is Patrick.
A man that can't do math and almost failed high-school, making him more of an educational failure than Christian Weston Chandler.
 
iva suit = you wear it inside your rocket/station, not in space
i hate to say it but fatrick has a point
We'll just pull a Technicality Tomlinson and state that since one would be in a rocket/station designed to travel outside of Earth's atmosphere (you know, outer space), it's a space suit.

None of are nearly as fat and even the women here don't have tits as big as his, though.

There was a big autism fight about it pages ago but needless to say you need technology that's basically magic compared to what we have now to colonize Venus in any context other than a blimp surrounded by acid clouds, which makes Pat's choice of terraforming interesting.
"Duhh if we removed 99% of its atmosphere it wouldn't be very bad at all" type wishful thinking.

The same guy that can't install a fence the right way and got the city of Milwaukee to give him a free pass to allow the code violation rather than fix it is lecturing people on the distinction between a pressure suit and an EVA suit. How well would shirking code compliance work out in space I wonder.

Why go for Venus then, and not fucking Mars? Too mainstream for fatso?
If you want to talk about a more obscure target of potential colonization, you could talk about Titan, one of the Moons of Saturn.

It's a panel filled with authors so they can just come up with utter bullshit. Not a single person that panel was a scientist.
 
Wait!....Is Patrick not showing up because PenguinCon IT How the Sausage Is Made is canceled and he originally thought it was about making pepperoni? (Not a good sign for your convention if ten panels have been canceled less than a week before your convention starts)

Well you see,sweetie child, Mars is the better candidate but Elon has talked about colonizing Mars and Patrick hates Elon and his purchase of twitter. So Venus it is

Venus smells more of rotten eggs than Mars and they always say write what you know.

Fun fact. The moon smells like gunpowder. I'm in the camp that it's due to sun bombarding the moons surface with ion radiation.

You don't really need to be a scientist to not be a complete ignoramus like Pat. Larry Niven, just to pick one writer, had a solid grasp of science despite not being a scientist (he had a B.A. in math but dropped out of grad school).

Science is mostly math. Least it is with physics. It's all I've all I've been doing. I'd rather just have a computer do that just so I can stop getting headaches ever few days.
