What business would you build on Mars?

“I have a confession. I didn't get on the spaceship. I missed the flight. I honestly have no desire to go to Mars, let alone with Elon Musk. I decided to stay on earth and to help the businesses that are actually trying to be sustainable and have social impact and social integrity as well as e-commerce or commerce right now.”

“If I had to go I would be another one of our lab’s members, Sitehive. They have a software and hardware product that captures all the different environmental elements around a construction site. So dust sound, noise, vibration, and they can compute that back to the civil engineers and the engineering teams that are doing construction. So I think that their business would probably be, granted gravity and all those things and space, a useful one. I think there would be like Levi Strauss selling the shovels to the gold diggers.”
