The one thing I wonder is that in the making of dry-ice the machines
will warm up due to the work involved.
If they are in the planets atmosphere this will add to the air.
Should you leave a fridge on and open in a closed room it will warm up
the room, as cooling is gained at the cost of making a larger amount
of heat than would have happened naturally.
So Id say that it would eventually do the opposite of your
intentions.
Sorry.
Okay... What if these balloons were operating at an extremely high
altitude where the air temperature was well below zero?
I just had another thought. What if we turned the CO2 into diamonds
and dropped them on the surface? Venus isn't hot enough to burn
diamonds, so they should do fine. Would that be enough to start a
cooling trend?
