I'm going to quote this because I think it's important...

Robots WILL NOT WORK. Drones WILL NOT WORK. Only MANNED MISSIONS will be efficient and actually WORK.
Furthermore, the individual manned space travel vehicle needs to have a system which can allow the man on board to work robot hands that can pick things up on the surface and stow them in the payload.
It can only be assumed that it will not be possible to step foot on most celestial bodies, and therefore all things must be remotely done, from within the ship, and at the hands of the man on board. There will however be the need for a SUIT onboard which can be used as a vehicle in and of itself for emergency purposes only. There is also recommended to be a second "space walk" suit onboard which could be used during docking in earth orbit etc.
Please remember this.
If this advice isn't heeded, ~30 years will be wasted... years which could have otherwise been used making insane profits, and mind blowing progress.
This is a delicate time and certain principles have to be upheld in order to ensure success is fairly immediate rather than delayed for (easily) a decade because the wrong approach was initially taken.
