Default When all the planets are explored in the solar system

The rescue trip would have to fly with 50% more food resources than the
original mission to cater for the crowded return trip.


Does the rescue trip have to be crewed on the way there?

Having said that... if I was going then I'd want to know there was
enough return-trip fuel /before/ I left. If it's manufactured on site
then by the time I get there they've probably manufactured an excess.

I'd also want the space vehicle(s) to have a lot of redundant systems.
I want to get home if things break.

I'm assuming I'm coming home, I'm not settling. I'd take a little more
persuading to settle. Internet access speed totally sucks.

If we're going for some reason other than to say we did, probably
sustainable development is on the agenda - a standing base.
