It's worth noting that Ceres, and by proxy the vast material wealth of the Asteroid Belt, is only 25% further from Earth than Mars is. The biggest barrier is Ceres has 10% of the gravity of Mars or about 3% of the gravity of Earth. This isn't even close to enough for anything we would consider healthy living.
