We can do both Mars and Earth.

Mars isn't easy, scientific research is okay, but using it for regular living and having an active civilisation on a planet, which doesn't have most of the basic elements required for living now should be having a very strong reason. What are the possible strong reasons for taking such a risky adventure?

I think the desire to conquer is deeply rooted in human DNA. Personally, I would consider it, despite the challenges.

Since the dawn of humanity, humans have taken risks, even risking their lives, to conquer new lands and discover new worlds.

Even today, thousands of men risk their lives crossing the Mediterranean Sea in boats to reach Europe from Africa, often illegally. And the same happens in other parts of the world.

Also, probably as American conquest, people that have nothing to loose (prisoners, poor persons) will have an opportunity to reset and success.

And for the requirements, it can go fast. 15 years ago, all the experts on space industry was telling reusable rockets is impossible, spaceX did it.

With AI (sorry, SI), the singularity is near, a lot off limits will probably reconsidered.
