If our govt was smart they would take control of the new technologies that come about thru space exploration and license it to companies that want to make use of it.

Kind of stupid to put folks up there before installing habitats to be self-sustaining. First thing that should be done is send up equipment and supplies to terraform the planet to make it habitable. It's going to need oxygen producing vegetation and in order to sustain vegetation, it must have a source of water. Even if they start now, it won't happen in my lifetime, so it really doesn't matter to me. That's a lot of money that will be potentially thrown away, that could be better used here. Of course, if Elon Musk wishes to throw his money into the wind, it's his to do with as he wishes.
But, as for sending folks up there on a sight seeing trip, it seems to be costly and very, very dangerous.

It won't happen in my lifetime either, and I leave no descendants of my own. Still, I wonder and hope my species will survive and succeed in become a light in the universe. |

With all problems in this country plus 35t and climbing like rocket heading for moon in debt I don’t see the point? Actually ISS waste of money now IMO.

put enough resources behind it you could send some astronauts and bring them back (hopefully) but as a permanent habitation seems like pie in the sky at this point, when Mars lost its magnetic field it lost most of its atmosphere and liquid water. Cold enough now that you have frozen CO2 in the polar region, perhaps I missed it but could not find any source , online, thinking terraforming has much of a chance

Like a couple of very large Euro Asian countries do now?

We should be able to fix any of earth’s problems long before we are capable of terraforming Mars. Obviously if we can make Mars habitable we can fix any climate issues or whatever happens here. If the sun explodes we need to go way further than Mars.
Apart from all that would I look for a Martian home on MLS or VLS? |
