if you can answer this question, you'll be better equipped to make decisions to get you there

Not everyone feels their life has to have a purpose, or they need a legacy. And not every life does, really. In fact, it would be impossible for everyone's life to have meaning.

I cant answer the question at this point either

but was hoping to draw from someone else's answer to make my own conclusions

to turn Mars green.

Depends on your definitions here. To me, there is a difference between the words "purpose" and "meaning". Purpose defines your role in a certain action and it's outcome. Meaning defines if you give a darn about that role or outcome. Also, "meaning" is very subjective.

There's a purpose for everything. There's a purpose for that last oxygen particle you just consumed, there's a purpose for the ray of light that came out your computer screen. It has a purpose. Everything has purpose and a role to play in this physical world.

To me, it might not mean much if the Red Sox win tonight. But, to someone else it might mean a lot. There is still a purpose for their win. Whether it's to go to the World Series or make a big name for themselves.

For people like moron, their life doesn't mean much nor do they care. Either way, they still have a purpose and play an active role that produces some result.

Good luck turning Mars green. Theres no magnetospere to protect an atmosphere.

^which is why you explode thermonuclear devices in the core??

Yeah, I dunno. It's what I've decided to work towards tho. Even if it can't happen on mars, cold-bearing, mass oxygen producing plants could have good applications on Earth.

I want to be remembered as someone who didn't raise a moron of a person in a world too full of idiots.

^^^ Yeah, it would be awesome if you could pull it off.

I recently read that something akin to Cloud City would be possible high in the atmosphere of Venus. The makeup of the atmosphere makes Earth air a lifting gas even though pressure would be similar. To do an EVA you would just have to put on an oxygen mask.
