I'll just point out that a Boring Co machine will fit inside a Starship.

Underground may be the only way to live, given that radiation dosage is cumulative, 24/7, it may not be possible to live on the surface at all in inflated domes. Maybe they're better suited for equipment storage and agriculture.

Why bother going then? I mean you can live underground on Earth much more easily.
Because it’s there. Some people like living in unusual places.
Read the link above. Aside from solar storms, radiation is at a level that humans survive just fine on Earth.

I do expect to see Boring machines on Mars anyway.
