    The reason why we haven't send a space probe to 2 Pallas is because Pallas' orbit around the Sun is inclined by 35 degrees, making it very difficult if not nearly improbable to send a space probe in that direction from Earth. It requires a lot of fuel and change in velocity and momentum to orbit Pallas.

    Asteroids, including those in the asteroid belt have been suggested as a possible site of human colonization. Some of the driving forces behind this effort to colonize asteroids include the survival of humanity, as well as economic incentives associated with asteroid mining. The process of colonizing asteroids does have many obstacles that must be overcome for human habitation, including transportation distance, lack of gravity, temperature, radiation, and psychological issues.

    The focus for humanity should be establishing bases on both the Moon and Mars (elsewhere if possible), not so much on galactic scientific studies. Given the cycles this planet has gone through in the past, it would be wise to have humanities footprints elsewhere... Just is case.
    Pretty much all efforts since Apollo, have gone to science, so I think they've had the limelight long enough and we need a change of focus for a bit. Once bases have been established, the scientists can then go back to their exploring.

    Great video! Particularly nice transition into the mid roll ad too.
    Seems to me that asteroid belt investigation will skyrocket the moment that certain industries finally begin to REALLY take seriously the kind of resources they'd find out there. Water ice is certainly of great importance for all manner of reasons, but the "big money" will be found in those nickel/iron objects, and in the many, many technologies and advancements we will need to develop in order to take advantage of the potential profits. Not a small task and not an easy one, but literally astronomical profits to reap? Once they really set their sights on it, the tech and exploration will develop Very Fast. Though I suppose we'll never have Belters like in some of the older classic science fiction tropes.
