No, just that in around 30 years when terraforming Mars becomes feasible (space elevator, robots etc etc) it could be done for no money whatsoever.

And besides, what is the point of building a large city on Ellesmere Island? Now, what is the point of building a city on Mars? Oh, I don't know, easier shipyards, a secondary planet for our species, and 1/3 G ball sports.

ONE THIRD G BALL SPORTS, IMAGINE HOW FUCKING AWESOME IT'LL BE WHEN WE CAN JUMP 5 METERS AND GET A SLAM DUNK

>Its power source is an internal hermetically sealed capsule containing a mixture of gas and liquid ethyl chloride, which expands into an expansion chamber as the temperature rises, compressing a spiral spring; with a fall in temperature the gas condenses and the spring slackens.[1] This motion constantly winds the mainspring. A temperature variation of only one degree in the range between 15 and 30 degrees Celsius, or a pressure variation of 3 mmHg, is sufficient for two days' operation.[2]
That's pretty awesome.
