Lets hurry up and get to Mars. I have it on good authority that there is plenty of everything there. Do they realise the humans are coming I ask myself.Lithium, from what I have read, is a very short life material. And is still in short supply. In its basic form it is like platinum,expensive.It can be extracted from sea water, but very expensively. And just to top it off, where is all the electric coming from to charge millions of batteries up? We only have to have a bit of a cold spell and the authorities tell us to cut back on consumption because we can not generate enough.
