  1. Let’s first get to the moon and start collecting data about how human bodies react to complete different environnements. The astronauts on the ISS still have the protection from the Earth’s magnetic field…

    I’ve said it many times in the internet. Out bodies are not rubber, they will NEVER adjust to different gravity. The only population that Mars can EVER sustain is robotic. The only humans that can live there are NOT humans, they would be a different breed of humans, changed by future gene tech that’s will arrive in the next century.

    This is the best case.

    We should aim for O’Neil cylinders with 0.9-1 of Earth gravity and mine and process exotic materials at Earth orbit. Everything else is BS of people who skipped school biology. The whole point of colonisation is to preserve Earth humans.
