Yeah but getting to Mars is a beast of an engineering project, and when was the last one of those that ever came in on schedule?

That's assuming it doesn't get canned. Let's face it in four years time there's a new Presidente who may decide not to spunk the GDP of several large African countries on going to Mars. So getting to Mars before 2050, could happen, but equally it could get kicked into the long grass by a different administration.
