Do you know arguments wrt whether we should give Mars priority over colonizing the deep ocean and vice versa?
Xrisk reduction favours Mars, resources favours ocean. Exploration, adventure, freedom etc. about equal. Cool toponyms favours Mars.
Are the chances of a deep ocean colony surviving yellowstone or a Chicxulub level impact really that small? Mars colonies will probably be quite brittle, won't have a crisis fallback and may thus have a half life < 1000 years if earth was hit hard
