One thing i think the first colonizers will also have to do before they go is get a lot of body modifications. The heart will be working twice as hard with extra gravity. I would expect them to invent some sort of device that eases that load. Also the solar radiation. There will have to be some sort of way to adjust human genetics to be less susceptible to radiation.
Other stuff too
yeah....special suits will have to be designed to save them from radiation and other things.
