Planetary Resources: Our Vision for Humanity’s Future in Space 

I'm 17 n it's my prime goal to get in asteroid mining one day, n I believe that

Gotta give credit to your marketing/video team. Excellent promo video! I wish all the best to Planetary Resources in its endeavor of driving humankind towards it's final, and ultimate, frontier.

Good work keep it up peps

Asteroid mining will have a huge impact on our society that's why I do share the Planetary Resources tube on the Facebook group "Future World.

Where's this company now? It shows 404 not found at its web site.

why the reupload?

Water is great for cracking and then burning, or just as a cold thruster, but how abundant are inert plasma/ion drive fuel elements? The eventual goal will be to incentivize drives with the least ejected mass, other things equal, so that the solar system dust field doesn't get denser, even with billions of mobile craft moving around spewing exhaust. (Then one day a lot of traffic will be exhaust-less, by that I mean pushed around by planet-based or planetisimal-based laser installations.) Hey, I'm thinking a hundred years out, but may as well start things out as perfect as we can reckon. It is definitely worth starting with water. It'll be used for everything. And you'll know the other materials soon enough. On a that note, I hope all mining activity has good dumping practices. We're going to need some good UV resistant km-wide bags to keep our neglected mass in. I would think that 99% of asteroid mass gets used up in any fully developed space economy, what with rock needed for rotating hab bedrock and soil, etc, etc, but an industrial ecosystem takes time to build. We need to store unused matter together, so it can not scatter and invoke Kessler when 1000 firms are in the market. I imagine our giant baggies should have thruster pods on them, or large painted panels that can move or electronically change color (radiation reflection rates) for exhaust-less trajectory correction.

Hey ! Anybody know how to go about investing in Planetary Resources?

Great video, nice graphics, and a fantastic vision!

Good work Guys. But remember an example of this. Not everyone likes the depressing cold of the north, not everyone likes the eerie depths of the Ocean floors, Not everyone likes the desolated emptiness of hot desserts, and not everyone likes the cyclopean aura of Deep and wide Jungles. So Good luck discovering that side of space that doesn't depress the living daylights out of man

How far are these "Near Earth Asteroids " away from earth?

My question for you guys concerns mars. The problem with mars is its size compared to earth as its mass produces less gravity so by bombarding mars with asteroids you could increase its mass which will allow a suitable atmosphere as well as gravity that can support humans. The mining could then go there.

I would love to be part of this company industry project to explore asteroids in space

Elite dangerous music is appropriate

Superb. Spacecraft AMANTHA

Admirable, you risk your effort in this. But it surprises me a lot to focus only on watery extraction, and not focus on much more than just exploring the water. Minerals and even the remaining "sand" of asteroid mining seem to be discarded when, through sunlight and solar sinter, you can simply make with 3D printers in the space itself resources for producing parts to be used in space exploration technology , or just the assembly of these equipments with the pieces produced in the space.

Please please i wanted worlk with planetary resources 😭 it is amazing

I think you cant you cant even develop a launch facility and rocket on your own till now like space x

Anything new? You haven't post anything new in a few years.

no sound in space yo! :P

Chidooo

How can I give you guys my money?

water based economy
