Article says nothing about cost. Amounts to "there's enough wind on Mars to support 6 people living for 500 days". Okay, but at what cost ? How many wind-turbines, what size, how are we going to build them, how much will it all cost ?

Wind and solar are not practical on Mars.

Even Solar on the moon would be challenging... 7 days of day and 7 days of night.
