Why not just pitch Jon (creator of Sublime) on open sourcing his editor. A business model where there is a community version and a professional version could work. I am sure you would be able to hit a Kickstarter goal pretty easily. Disclos

Trying to go to Mars is equivalent to the explorers in the 1500-1700s discovering other continents. History has shown it was a good idea. We won't know the benefit of going to Mars until 100s of years after we do it.
