I haven't seen any evidence we could actually harness the resources on mars without tech that doesn't exist. E.g. fusion power. Without orbital infrastructure

Without orbital infrastructure shipping supplies in neither are viable.
- dotnet00 1y agoYou don't need fusion power to melt ice, to move regolith over habitats for shielding, or to melt rocks to extract and process metals. I have absolutely no idea where you get the notion that it meeds fusion power? Solar power or things like kilopower reactors are a great option for Mars, especially for bootstrapping.
