Hey Kotaku! If you're going to post answers to the New York Times Connections
game every day, could you at least remove the spoilers from the headlines?
You're not the only games site going for the low-hanging fruit of
helping people cheat the Times' various puzzles, but other sites have the
courtesy of not forcing answers on you before getting the clicks they are baiting. Please follow suit. Kthxbye.

Creature Features
Mars by 2028? Crack dreams.
They haven't even yet tested in-space refueling, which will be necessary for Starship to reach the moon, much less Mars.
Add to that the thousand or so life threatening minor issues that need to be resolved.
BTW: Fun read is "A City on Mars: Can We Settle Space, Should We Settle Space, and Have We Really Thought This Through?" written by Kelly & Zack Weinersmith of SMBC comics fame, where they pretty clearly spell out all the little details that need to be solved before we can get people to Mars safely, much less setup a self sustaining city.
