This might be a whole thread unto itself, but I wonder how long, if ever, it would take to not only colonize, but form a city on another planet about the size of, say, Albuquerque. I just really am fascinated by the possible governance and physical architecture of such communities. 

If we or our evolutionary successors ever get that far.
