I feel that the whole manned base on Mars thing is a complete waste of engineering talent and resources that could be much better spent on trying to build out the replacement for our very soon to be dwindling fossil energy here on Earth. There is no plan(et) B.

If we really think that we still have the societal surplus to spend on playing around with offworld humans, the South Pole of the Moon would be just as (in)hospitable as Mars and is much closer.
