Ironically, it would be easier to terraform Venus than Mars. Mars is just too small. Venus is like 92-94% of Earth's mass. We would just need to throw a couple of ice asteroids, and enough solid mass to create a moon, and then wait for it to become cool and solid enough to introduce cyanobacteria and cool it down.
