There are many excellent reasons to go to Mars, but for anyone to tell you that Mars will be there to back up humanity is like the captain of the Titanic telling you that the real party is happening later on the lifeboats.
Ada banyak alasan bagus untuk pergi ke Mars, namun menganggap Mars sebagai cadangan umat manusia, itu bagai perkataan kapten kapal Titanic, bahwa pesta yang sebenarnya ada di perahu penyelamat.
