#8 says 2-3 weeks and we can go down to the planet. Everything the we built on Mars was destroyed during the terraforming process so we’ll need to do some construction before the kids and I can actually go down there. I’ll go down with a 3d printer and a couple of robots. The printer will print everything needed for the construction as well as lots of robots to do the work. We’ll be on the ship for awhile longer.
