This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
No colonising please. Leave that nonsense to the Age of Sail. By all means, have a science outpost but no permanent and growing settlements, no terraforming, no farming, no mining. We have our own planet and other worlds are not our "manifest destiny to conquer". We must be the Watchers, not the Contangion. Humanity should go to the stars to explore but not to destroy it in our image. Create any permanent settlements on Mars and wars and misery will soon follow.
You can't stop it. Not only because of the resources but also as a way of continuing our existence. It's just a matter of time.
