Huh. You’re right. Only 3% nitrogen. I wonder if you can still pull it from the atmosphere with electricity at that level. I’m not a chemist. But if we built some nuclear reactors we’d have plenty of electricity.
To be this is a further argument to bring humans last. I think we should attempt to bring whatever life will take the easiest first. Maybe it will need some support like humans would. But it will be less complex supporting something else.
You've really made me realize that the moon is about as hospitable as Mars is, and is closer. It also has He3. If we ever crack fusion that could be useful.
Hi. I feel like we haven't met. Welcome. How do we solve the problem of electronics surviving the surface? The longest we've gotten anything to last there is about 2 hours.
Mars is hostile to life.
What's the point?
Exploration.
First explore with robots. With supply stations in a Lagrange orbit and on the Moon. Master that first by building sustainable habitats - most likely in volcano tubes. Knowing how fragile housing is on Earth I am skeptical. Think of leaky basements, always replacing roofing, etc.
Then try Mars, just to try.
But colonizing is absurd.

Where the fuck are you gonna get your nitrogen from?

I think it is neat and good that humanity thinks of colonizing the solar system.
I think it is retarded and gay that humanity cannot think about where their nitrogen/poetry comes from.

I think colonizing Mars, or the Moon, would be interesting.
But wouldn't it be more interesting if we forced all Italians to colonize the Sea? No boats allowed.
I hear if they talk enough they tread water pretty good. And believe me, they talk enough.
You think we have a rover on Mars? I bet you think we went to the moon as well.
Is all of it fake? The moon landings clearly were, but what stops us from landing vehicles on the moon or other planets?
Mars colonization is pointless. It's putting the cart before the horse.
Venus is closer to Earth, contains more valuable resources, and holds much more promise and answers to space exploration than Mars does.
Mars is just a selling point. The real space colonization begins when we have enough resources to craft a legitimate travel colony on the Moon.
