Hi Victor,
the iq test is for the species. And i am afraid the results aren't in quite yet. Btw, Freeman Dyson has pointed out that it took over 130 years from discovery of America to the first colony.
We are probably looking at a similar process, and he thinks it will take
a similar length of time. Among enthusiasts, this is common knowledge.
So...while i might want to see a serious effort begin yesterday; my expectation is that it will take another century for it to begin.
The situation is a bit more complicated than that, as there are various things that will need doing ( the most important, perversely, is someway to clean up the junk in orbit). Ah well.
