Mars Sculpture Park

If we lift our eyes from the immediate technological problems of landing on and surviving on Mars I think we will see there are many opportunities for generating revenue and creating a separate culture.

For instance, I would argue there it scope for the early development of a sculpture park on Mars.

Sculptures can have high value:-

The sculptures could be constructed in situ, following the plans of sculptors on Earth.

How much would the first sculpture on Mars be worth?  I'd say at least $20 million.  A famous scupltor might buy into the project for perhaps $10 million and sell on the sculpture to an earth based buyer. Others might follow. I think the first sculpture park might easily realise a total value of $500 million.
