Was it posted here, or somewhere else, that getting the people to Mars
is the easy part, dealing with the Radiation because there's such a thin
atmosphere is the hard part. I.E. The people will get to mars, but
they'll only survive for a couple years or less once they get there.

Yes. He's nuts.
He'll solve the problem of delivering a colony to Mars, but has
anyone solved the problem of how they'll actually survive on Mars?
We've had trouble with building closed ecosystems on Earth, where the
temperature and pressure are survivable and the air is breathable.
Shouldn't they experiment with a colony in Antarctica or Death Valley
before they worry about launching it all to Mars?
Or is the hope that solving one piece of the puzzle will create a
will to solve the rest of it?
