I agree.

But going to Mars in the next decades is a useless horrific suicide mission that only serves to make a few people famous.

IMO persons will colonize moons, planets and space ships once their biological body is replaced by a machine body. In a biological sense, the human race will die on Earth.

I agree that focusing on Mars soon is useless, but in the near-term Thorium could be useful for non-windy locations near the poles.
