Any ship that could go to Mars with enough stuff for at least 3 astronauts to survive for a 7-month trip there, one year on Mars and a 7 month trip back would be so massive that it would never get launched off of Earth. A rocket that big just wouldn't work.
Therefore, it has to be constructed in space.
