Robert Zubrin made his presentation to the Mars Society in 2018.
A vibrant space program will inspire millions of children to study science and technology so that they can be a space pioneer. Children are not inspired by lot of testing.
We are entering into an age of Great Discovery.

People (not just kids) are inspired by accomplishment and bravery. Going to space for making a new world requires both. Nevertheless, I think it may take longer than most expect, especially if there are deaths along the way (and there will). These human settlements in other celestial bodies will be a new thing in all of human history, and their long term viability is pending to be tested and proven. I hope they can be maintained alive and growing, but it depends really in may factors outside of SpaceX control. They are doing more than enough by giving us the way to go and some of the required infrastructure for returning home.
Children are not inspired by testing? So, would they be more inspired by dead astronauts? Testing and experiment IS science. If kids want “excitement” they can watch the military blow stuff up.

Zubrin made a case we would have gone to Mars in 2016. I remember the article right in NBF here
