Made In Space's idea involves sending an advanced, robotic "Seed Craft" out to rendezvous with a succession ofnear-Earth asteroidsin space. The Seed Craft would harvest material from the space rocks, then use this feedstock to construct propulsion, navigation, energy-storage and other key syste...
mining asteroids, making it a viable industry for space entrepreneurs. The long-term goal of companies like Asteroid Mining Corp. Ltd. is to extract platinum from asteroids by 2030, marking a significant milestone in human civilization's reach beyond Earth. Thus, such factors are driving the ...
Space Mining is done by finding different types of asteroids in space, and using mounted or attached tools to damage the asteroid. The Prospector mining ship has more mining tool seats than any other ship and has tough and durable armor plating. It also has high-performance mounting points tha...
According to Volker Hessel, deputy dean from the university's faculty of engineering, computer and mathematical science (ECMS), mining asteroids such as Bennu could be a reality but only when doing so is economically and technically viable. ...

in the rocket silo gives ~12.5% net gain. - If Space Age is enabled, you get 1/20th the amount of asteroids from each module, due to needing 1/20th the resources to make a rocket (Half as many parts at 1/10th the cost). This does mean the risk of rolling low is greater, as ...
