I think it will be done, just not in our lifetime, the tech just isn't developed enough.
Just hope our earth does not boil in the meanwhile.

Humanity is more colonised rather than colonising 
Do you think humanity will ever create colonies on the other planets (not just couple of trained astronauts but a civilian population in a city or something similar) and depending on your opinion why not / where and when do you think they're likely to be created first?... also will the frontier of colonising be in our own solar system on Mars for example or on some exoplanet
This is debatable right now since we don't have the full capacity to do so, let the technology develop some years more and maybe people can start talking about it, though i believe there will be a time that humanity will start colonizing planets outside our solar system or even our galaxy. 
Mars is another planet which have the capability of supporting lives, so I think colonies will be created here first
Mars is not ideal for human habitation. The atmosphere is full of Carbon dioxide and other toxic gases and the gravity is about half of that in the earth. And there is no ozone layer there, which protects the inhabitants from the harmful solar radiation. If we want to live in Mars, then we will be forced to wear anti-radiation suits 24x7.
All planets are gravity wells. Until mankind will not create super engine like Star Wars colonising is economically unprofitable. Just think how many power and money we need to deliver 1 kg of cargo to orbit. Colonising have only one reasone - create "Second Earth" if Terra will be destroy.
IMHO, real revolutoin for human expansion at that moment - it's living in open space within asteroid worlds or huge arks.

First I think we would have to be able to travel great distances in space before anything else. The time and space laws of physics during soace travel is fivkle and we would have to be able to brave it first before even thinking about colonizing it.
Yes it will happen, but in a very distant future.
First-Our economy needs to evolve beyond existence of private property and towards creation of a common value for all in a meritocratic society.
Second-Robots with AI need to have bulit-in protective mechanism against any form of rebellion against us.
Third-Armies of selfreplicating AI robots will be sent out to perform terraforming of suitable planets in our own solar system at first, or depending on their efficiency they could even collect fragments of material from asteroid belt and build artificial twin-Earths further away from the Sun as it gets hotter over time.
Timeline for this to occur is 1000...x years ahead of our time unfortunately, we actually have only a marginal chance to witness it ourselves - to be placed in a cryogenic chamber and then to be unfrozen after 1000...x years.

The media and Government are lying to you when they talk about going to other planets.
Back in the 1950s, they told us that soon we would be going to the moon. Their projections were for the end of the 1960s or the early 1970s. They said we would have bases on the moon. They said that there would be public travel to the moon every week. They lied. How do we know that they lied? Here's how.
In the early '60s they shelved a project that could take us to Saturn and back in as little as 4 years. A trip to Mars in a couple of months, easily. And they never even told the public that the project existed, or why they shelved it.
Then they funded the stupid NASA space program which almost doesn't work, just to make it look like they really had something. Fact is, there's tons of evidence around that all those NASA space movies, including the moon landings, are fake... even if NASA really did go to the moon.
All their space travel dream-spreading is BS to get more funding. If they actually did what they had said, they did it in secret, and they haven't told anyone like they promised.

If you want to go to other planets, figure out how to do it on your own, or with some friends of yours. Government isn't going to take you there. They lie.

I think that in 50 years on the Moon there will be a stationary inhabited base. There will be extracted helium-3 for thermonuclear reactors. And then a base will be built on Mars.
Overpopulation will force us to colonize other planets. Can I go first to Mars?
NASA has long been doing research on which planet can be inhabited by humans, probably more than 20 years NASA studied it. There are some planets similar to Earth, one of the best candidates is the planet Mars, the surface of Mars is almost similar to Earth, some minerals are also similar to minerals on earth, oxygen levels are thinner than earth, and its gravity is smaller than earth. For example, our weight on the earth about 80 kg on the planet Mars may be about 60 kg, because the gravitational force on the planet Mars is smaller than the earth. We all hope the next few years can be completely inhabited by humans and all plants including animals from the earth.

The colonization of other planets, i think it is similar with the ancient colonization of Amazon, it's just that the distance between planets is different, in rest we relay on explorers.

No it won't. Civilization will face major wars and problems during this century and space programs will get halted eventually. People don't want to fund something they don't even believe anymore (flat earth). There will be more entertainment and people are already seeking mainly pleasures, especially in the west, they don't want to achieve anything anymore.
Speak for yourself pal. I live in the west and we don't want to achieve anything anymore really? Do you believe the earth is flat?
Sounds like a great idea. Hawkings is already working on finding life outside the planet, so that's a good start
I think we will destroy this planet sooner than we are able to colonise other planets. And I believe it's fair. We don't deserve to live on other planets if we destroy ours
most likely Mars will be the first where we can colonize)) the planet is not the limit?
Well, human colonization of solar system is inevitable. Mars is the focus of much scientific study of possible human colonization. I don't think we could go any further in the next 100 years.
Human colonization of Mars would require huge amounts of effort, time and money. I am not sure whether it is worth all this. We have our own planet, where there is enough room for everyone. What is the need to waste so much money in colonizing other planets? On the other hand, we can utilize that money to make our planet more habitable.
I agree. In the Population thread, I show people ways that we can use the earth to make room for as many as 100 billion people, but they just ignore me. One of the ways is Seasteading, https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.24537230. Are there that many trolls in that thread? Are they bound to come over here if we make this a thread for turning Earth into the paradise for many that it can be?

If this happens, it will be in the distant future. Now mankind spends a lot of money on wars and conflicts. But they could use this money to develop technologies, with which it was possible to study the possibility of settling other planets. Well, human colonization of solar system is inevitable.
