“Over time, they’ll develop cancer-proof skin to survive the extra solar radiation, and denser bones to cope with Mars’s low-gravity conditions.”


Evidence of idiocy.

Keep in mind that they'd likely receive much higher doses of cosmic rays during their time there. Cosmic rays are known to cause genetic mutations here on earth. It's the mechanism that drives evolution, so they say. In other words, the increased CR intensity may speed the evolutionary process up significantly.
