I wonder if they will do anythin with the moon as a practice stepping stone

Moon would be good for a test run. If they can't do the moon easily, they aren't doing Mars!

yup thatswhat i was thinking. its a great place to test the 3d printing idea for building the stuff you need once you get there, aswell as a bunch of other technologies.

And i think they should land close to tranquility base to shut people up haha
