    There's a big difference between a long-term continuously inhabited research and exploration base and a "colony".
    We've had people continuously on Antarctica for decades, and it's not a "colony" to which people will retire and raise children.
    China has talked about kilometer scale space structures that allow long-term habitation: obviously they mean O'Neill habitats.
    If China has infrastructure in space to start a Stanford Torus at Mars or in Earth-Moon space, then we'd better brush up on learning to speak Chinese.
    It's obvious that any nation that has large-scale space efforts going on own the Earth and all Human endeavors, if no one else has bothered to stop watching TV long enough to keep up.

      Exactly! If they spent the same money as they do for rockets etc. on robotics for space developement instead, progress would be unprecedentedly quicker and cheaper (and better)...I reckon. They do seem to be getting the idea though. There are some videos on a similar idea and the TESLA bot project may lean towards this. But why spend so much money doing it the hard way when they could do it better with robots? 😕 Boston Dynamics is maybe demonstrating this possibility right now! Humans are unprecedentedly less cost effective in space travel and building space projects (cos of required life sustainability and stuff). Space X may do the rocket bit with humans but I reckon send the TESLA bot (or both humans and the bots) and gradually develop a robotic construction system. But I reckon do it on earth first and for a decade at least, before actually doing it in space. The robots should be good enough to do it by themselves by then. They should NOT be in any hurry or slackness in space stuff. Just do it in our own time, but do it. Spend the money on robots first then on the rockets when the robots are ready. It would be unprecedentedly hard but not as hard as rushing out there with humans cos of POLITICS (in a hurry). That is not science that is POLITICS.

      On top of that China simply used the technology and methods that the Americans, soviets, and Germans developed, tested, and proved.
      It’d be like having 2 kids taking an exam, racing to see who finishes first, then a third kid shows up a week later after the teacher has already graded and handed back the exams. Then that third kid declared he was going to race too, and said he was a better test-taker after he copied the other two’s answers. China is wholly incapable of developing anything themselves. They just steal all of their designs from people who actually have the talent and skill to develop them. Just look at the Chinese military. All of their jets, tanks, planes, and boats are rip offs of American, European, and Russian designs. China will never reach mars first, because all they can do is copy what everyone else is doing.

      Bud, you do realize that in order for SpaceX to operate in the USA they have strict laws about information sharing right? Any sort of technology that can be used to ballistic missiles has high clearance vetting in place for All employees and I highly doubt the government of the USA is going to allow SpaceX to share technology with a future military enemy. If Elon did this, it's probable he would end up executed for treason considering that's how sensitive the technology is and once again, I'm 100% the USA government isn't going to allow this 🤣

      Spacex is completely forbidden with sharing technology with any country outside the US. They are not allow to hire non Americans. Tesla and space x are two totally different companies. Space will never work with China on anything space related. It is illegal under us law.

    Also, WAAAY too much faith in Elon Musk.
    I know we tech guys like him, but he's severely under delivered on many projects lately. Everything from self driving cars (supposedly fully automatic by 2020), to his solar houses, to the Vegas Loop disaster, to crypto...
    SpaceX itself also works very closely with NASA & are being financed by many NASA contracts, so let's not act like he himself is just carrying the weight of the space race on his shoulders.
    Many in SpaceX have distanced themselves from him & his promises, as the company basically operates independently of him in many regards anyway.
    I don't dislike Elon, I've just learned to temper expectations on anything he hypes up, promises or promotes.

We'd really need to get on top of that not to have those sealed colonies turn into hellish petri dishes where everyone's dying from respiratory illness and similar things.

    I truly hope we make it to Mars and make it a 2nd home. That is a truly beautiful and inspiring hope for humanity. Unfortunately, I rarely ever see any breakthroughs on the effects of low gravity, never mind the radiation, isolation, etc. Even if we master the technology of shipping large amounts of people and supplies, how are they supposed to live and procreate? I imagine short lives for the 1st group of ppl to arrive and it seems doubtful that many pregnancies would be successful, if any. Who knows if its even possible to have children in that low of gravity. Possibly there would be some brutal form of evolution where children could eventually be born on mars after generations of misery. Its doubtful they would even be similar to the humans of Earth by that point. Maybe we will create a technology to fix this, but that seems lifetimes away. We did get people to the moon in the 60s, so I guess, and hope that it is possible.
