A step toward fully 3D-printed active electronics

This is like posting "Landing on Mars" and all you did was catch a reusable rocket.

I think the "step towards being an inter planetary species" as a result of catching a re-usable rocket might have merit in that it makes construction of things in outer space easier (although that's probably a charitable interpretation of the statement).

My take on the Spacex is Mars habitation project is that Musk will put a bunch of edgelords on Mars, and then not really be able to follow up with adequate supply lines and the operation will be offline for a hundred years or so while the climate settles down. The people who live on Mars will then have been there alone for a century and in the 2100s we will send a follow up mission with hilarious consequences.

He won’t put anyone living on Mars. And even if he did, they wouldn’t last that long.

That first article is just nonsense. The south pole can't support life? It's been supporting humans for half a century. Can't protect against radiation? Live underground like Hamas did. Have to wait 9 months for food? We do that on Earth too - if you're hungry, call a farmer and ask him to plant some food then come back in a year or two when it's harvested. We solve that problem by pipelining it, just as you would on Mars.
