Mars isnt happening as most people will not survive the various threats a trip there presents. Including psychosis driven by being cooped up in a small space with people for 9+ months.

Boring has some potential here, but there is better drilling tech coming soon. I believe there are sonic lasers being tested for geothermal. If that's successful thatll blow away borings drilling tech.

Where conditions become too difficult for physical drill bits to operate, researchers have been testing the capabilities of directed energy beams to heat, melt, fracture and even vaporize basement rock in a process called spallation, before the drill head even touches it.
