A portable sea: feasibility study
Mars lacks one obvious amenity. Engineering has thoughts.

Mars has mountains, canyons and excellent sunsets. It does not have a sea. For most agencies this is trivia; for us it is a blocker.
Requirements
The portable sea must be:
- Salty to specification (Atlantic, house style).
- Modular: four hundred parts, each labelled brine, mission critical.
- Calm on Sundays.
Phase one prototypes include a very committed paddling pool. It currently holds 0.0000004% of a sea, which the team insists on calling a rounding sea.
Wave generation is solved, in the sense that Mars has two moons and we intend to use whichever behaves.
Status: feasible, pending tide negotiations.
