00:00I think I want to just emphasize again that it's more important than the form of governance on Mars or
00:08who's there in the early days.
00:09What really matters is that Mars is self-sustaining, that we are truly a multi-planet species and such that
00:20we've achieved planetary redundancy.
00:24Obviously, we should do everything possible to make sure life on Earth is great, but there's always some risk of
00:29an annihilation event on Earth, like I said, self-annihilation or some natural disaster.
00:36And so the probable lifespan of consciousness increases dramatically as soon as we are a multi-planet species.
