The Sun's faintness at Mars' orbit makes producing energy, melting ice, and staying warm more difficult. Orbiting solar reflectors (OSRs) can augment sunlight at Mars, but the area of OSRs needed to double sunlight at a Mars base is not known. Here, we analyze Sun-synchronous Mars orbits to find the
