Some people do not want just to ferry to the Moon, but to hop like a grasshopper to more distant Mars. I envision that the increasing power of AI engines would help problem-solving in these fields of space exploration and colonization. What cannot be solved by the human mind now, maybe will be solvable by machine intelligence in the future. Maybe, machine intelligence will help humanity transform itself from a turtle to a grasshopper. Only time will tell. Maybe then, Mars, the Red Planet, will no longer be just a "romantic fantasy" for human colonization. For generations, Mars has been such, as the influence of the four-armed Green Martians of "Barsoom" in the vintage tales of Edgar Rice Burroughs, which I, in childhood, read in the form of comics.
