Like if you could build something awesome on Mars it would pretty much universally be easier to build it in North Dakota.

- ceejayoz 5y agoSure. It's easier to build in North Dakota than it is in the Swiss Alps, too, but people do that in part because they like the Alps. There are going to be people for whom the idea of a frontier life in a place of natural, untouched beauty appeals. We've always had those folks. Some of them find life is harder than they expected; some thrive.
- maxerickson 5y agoThere has always been new opportunity at frontiers. Mars is just harsher than anywhere on earth. There's less of everything other than space and harmful radiation (and you sort of have to make the space that you want/need when you get there...)
