What Happened To Space Mining?
Just a couple of years ago, it seemed that space mining was inevitable. Analysts, tech visionaries and even renowned astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson predicted that space mining was going to be big business. Space mining companies like Planetary Resources and Deep Space Industries backed by the likes of Google’s Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, cropped up to take advantage of the predicted payoff. After all, the holy grail of asteroids, known as 16 Psyche, had an estimated worth of $10,000 quadrillion. But fast forward to 2022, and humanity has yet to commercially mine even a single asteroid. CNBC spoke to two California startups, AstroForge and TransAstra, about how they are trying to make space mining a reality and the challenges they face.

How The U.S Became So Dependent On Taylor Farms
Taylor Farms has been linked to cyclosporiasis and salmonella outbreaks this summer. After years of consolidation, experts say the company’s ability to control every stage of the supply chain has made it indispensable to grocers and restaurant chains, while raising the stakes for consumers when things go wrong. CNBC food and wellness reporter Brandon Gomez explains how the U.S. became so reliant on Taylor Farms.

0:51 yeah sure it does… until you realize there is no where near that much money on earth, theres like 50 trillion in liquid currency so if we put every last dollar towards buying all that unique metal, we would have to print another "10,000 quadrillion dollars" just to have enough money to pay the value they say its worth. you cant introduce an unprecedent amount of new unique metal and then still expect todays price for that unique metal. markets are based on supply and demand. there is only so much currency to go around, if you suddenly introduce loads of a previously limited material, the price of that material is obviously going to plummet. not rocket science.. its embarrassing mainstream media would promote such nonsense.

Scientists, right now, cannot figure out how to divert astroids that are in a path to hit earth – don’t know how to move them away. “Mining Astroids” need a gigantic towing system to move them.

Mining asteriods won't happen in our lives , period! As long as humanity values money over exploration it will take a vary long time to come close to commercially mining asteroids. It dosnt make sense and it never will untill more break throughs happen, i would say its more likely we figure a way to make these rare metals for cheaper then it would be to go het them

This is a typical BS report from CNBC that sensationlizes everything. Only an asteroid that just happens to be 90% Platinum could produce the results they claim here. They present the pro data but leave out the cons.

This will be kept secret as long as possible. The US, or any country, that successfully mines in space will destroy the economy…the gold standard. There would be a major reset. World banks would collapse. There would have to be a major shift in world economics. Any of this sound familiar?
Tic-tac technology is just the tip of the iceberg people. Trillion$ missing from pentagon budget. So called "SMART" people will poo poo this. The closed minded robots will say this is fantasy. We are being distracted for a reason.

Imagine mining a diamond asteroid and sending it back to earth. Diamond values would collapse. It's valued as a rare mineral, but if tons of it is suddenly available, it falls to a value of copper or silver or lead. Find something that Earth doesn't have. Then you're wealthy. Anything else is just screwing with the world economy.

I seriously believe the moon should be off limits to any mining efforts. The earth is dependent on the moon for stability and other things. If anything were to happen, we'd be up salt creek without a paddle. Remember what happened in Space 1999? lol

The problem with Hollywood (aka "Hollyweird") is that they tend to lampoon any realistic concept of a probable future up until the time it actually happens. Then, people will look back and see how utterly ridiculous Hollywood (aka "Hollyweird") was lampooning a possible realistic future. This is the same industry that laughed at people who were trying to build heavier-than-air aircraft before the Wright Brothers came along to prove them wrong. The Future of Space Mining will take money, time and effort. When it does happen, Hollywood (aka "Hollyweird") will end up eating up a lot of crow. I'd suggest that they start sitting themselves at a table and get ready to eat a lot of it.

What happens when we increase Earth's mass, to Earth itself, it's orbit, it's trajectory, the moon, etc. If we do this on the scale planned, than that will certainly need to be investigated, before engaging on it.
