Sometimes I wonder what the percentage likelihood is that my kids will walk on another planet someday. I’m increasingly confident it’s not zero.
For a lot of people to go to Mars, rather than just mission-sized groups, there would have to be not just technology for getting there, but a reason for them to go there. And while the technology might get good enough, I don't see where the reason comes from.
