Nobody is going to Mars. We can’t even get back to the moon, and we barely have a Space Station. We can’t even do basic things on this planet. This Mars talk is all a giant grift.

If any human goes to Mars it is likely to be the Chinese, and only if there is a real reason for humans to go there. Anything we need from Mars can be done with drones.
