My View of Engineered Solar System

I heard and read many fuzzy stories about how we should make industry in outer space, and how we could make use of Mercury material. Further on, how the space elevator is technologically available today, how it slows down earth rotation, and how we should 'prolong' day by setting up a 25-hour day counter.

My view of engineered Solar System is a Transformer-like metamorphoses ⎯  reshaping moons or even entire planets like raw Mercury, from sphere shape to nice engineered habitable construction. There is so much material and I think it's very important not to take it away from the original location. We should always realize objects in space are synced and one should work on their adaptation on the spot, so that alignment is not disturbed.
