We can't even look after earth. Why are we trying to colonise another planet??
Because we're going for mass effect instead of star trek
Only if we find a convenient Mass Relay. Otherwise it's The Expanse for us.
Hell yeah space sex with sexy alien sexy sex sex
I hate to be a hater but this is quite possibly the most depressing outlook on life there is. Its like saying "we cant even be proper hunter gathers. Why are me trying this farming thing". Is it not in human nature to climb one mountain just to look to the next?
You seem to have answered your own question.
There is nothing short of the moon falling to the Earth that can make Mars a more viable place for humans than the Earth.
Is that a challenge?
Well that's a reason.
At the moment with current technology, colonising other planets in the solar system is unsustainable without a lot of effort from earth so I doubt anything will come out of it in the near term.
