To be honest I wouldn't be surprised if technological advancement comes to a screeching halt within the next 50 years due to wars / lack of resources.

Sad post but I think true. Unless we find something on Mars that robots can't exploit and makes the trip profitable this is all we have. Getting to another solar system and getting to Mars is like comparing walking next door and going around the globe in a paddle boat.
