Should you go to Mars? ft Bill Nye

No, I would not go to Mars. We have our fabulous tools to do the exploration for us. I for one want to stay right here on earth (our best spaceship). We are the best tool makers in the known universe. By all means, lets send our AI enabled tools to Mars and the rest of the solar system's planets/moons and explore to our heart's content. In this day and age, there is no more need for "spam in the can" to go exploring in space. Not even the moon is a good candidate for human exploration/exploitation. The days of human space exploration are best left to history. We get precious little from sending people into space whereas we get a great amount of knowledge and benefit from sending our tools out there to do our bidding.
