Mars first...
for if we can reach Mars, then we can reach the Asteroid Belt...
If we can reach the Asteroid Belt, we can build mass-drivers...
Then we can bring the asteroids into Earth Orbit...
From high orbit we can fling them at whomever we desire!
And with such a weapon that makes puny nukes look like firecrackers, we will make the entire world quake with fear, ha ha, haha mwahahahahahaha!
On the other hand maybe 10 million years ago we should have just stayed in the damn trees eating bugs and berries all day.
