Fun fackt, Luxemburg used to supply iron to Europe, but when the mine in Kiruna, Sweden opened they could not compete with the high quality iron ore from that mine, so they had to basically reinvent it economy. I guess old grudges never die.
Mining will no doubt play a big role in human advancements. Digging or retrieving new elements can change our way of life and maybe have the ability to travel between stars in no time.
@@delavan9141 Yeah, new elements. On other rocky or gas planets, there's a high probability that there are other elements not found on this earth. Hope that address your question.
There are no new elements which haven't already been discovered, and it is far easier and cheaper to mine your rare earths, which really aren't all that rare, here on Earth. Even light can't reach the nearest star, Alpha proxima, in no time. It takes more than four years.
I'm far more excited about colonisation of our own solar system than I am about all the wonders telescopes show us that are out of grasp today. We are on the cusp of being able to live and prosper in space beyond our wildest dreams - Right here in our own cosmic back yard. What can we do around other stars? Nothing. We can't even conceive of reaching them in practical time frames yet. We can do something here though. Expand the horizons of humanity like never before. The first space ship that will reach another star with people onboard will be made in space in any case. Not here on Earth. And that space ship design/technology will be achieved because of many logistical and technical problems that would have already been solved by inhabitants of the solar system beyond Earth.
You can still be excited about JWST., just like I am excited for Mars. I fear there are hard lessons left to learn but we must face these challenges head-on. New developments in warp technology (this month!) may bring the stars closer to us than ever before.
Other stars is a bit premature. Let us focus with bases on the Moon and lunar resource exploitation. Asteroid mining and colonies on Mars and beyond follows. After we settle and utilize solar system resources we can ponder going to other stars.
Yeah. It's not only the pragmatic course, but the only viable one. I think the chances of starting with interstellar colonisation successfully before even developing habitation tech locally is next to zero. And I think there can be plenty of wonder and adventure right here :) New vistas. Exotic materials. Even alien life in our own solar system is quite conceivable.
@@LolUGotBusted Oh sure. Undoubtedly many interesting observations will be made. Possibly entirely new directions for physics and cosmology. I'm very interested in that. I'm just relatively more interested in getting on with the nuts and bolts stuff here in our solar system.

They're just not anywhere close to making asteroid mining financially viable. Trying to capture an asteroid or mine on the moon requires an insane amount of energy investment.
@@jonesmatthew7511 Because it costs 60mn dollars to launch a rocket, and probably hundreds of millions to build the technology and capability to mine and transport platinum back to earth. Then there's also the insanely difficult task of actually capturing an asteroid in orbit which will require some intense nuclear or fusion propulsion to be able to change its orbit.
Exactly. As the video stated, it takes a lot of government focus to make something like this happen, and no government is currently putting the necessary focus on asteroid mining. It seems to me that AI self-replicating robots would be the best way to accomplish it
Orbital solar farms could provide power generation and delivery system . Due to lack of gravity , large array of space solar farm could be deployed in orbit to collect and transmit power to the target.

When I learned that Luxembourg had a framework for space mining, I wondered how long it would take for our German politicians to create something similar. But I guess, that was still Neuland, at least for the former grand coalition.
Launching the factory to the Moon would create a captive labor pool, literally beholden to Luxembourg; they will take you there, but, any complaints about working conditions, well, you can't leave, you can't communicate, and if there's a strike, well, they just stop sending anything until the workers capitulate because if they don't they'll die. Never imagine such insanity wouldn't serve Luxembourg interests; Luxembourg will rule the Moon.
Next giant leap is to mine moon's Helium-3 as fuel for fusion reactors . Lunar post is utilized to mine Helium-3 and launch it through spin-launcher into Lunar orbit , where it's dispatched toward earth to power fusion reactors . The race is on to mine the next black gold : lunar Helium-3.
It’s not about to. It’ll be a while before we actually commercially mine in space. That being said, it would be fantastic to devalue gold, it has a lot of uses. Jewelry is the least useful purpose for gold
Luxembourg legalising space resource extraction is smart move. Building a company in the US for space resource extraction might run afoul of ITAR during recruitment. I don't think Luxembourg has anything similar to ITAR, so recruiting expat experts should be easier. CMIIW of course
Mining in space is fascinating and necessary if civilization is expected to be around much longer. But we are going to have to change allot of things about it. Motive for innovation is a big one, if not the single biggest factor in developing the technology humanity needs to survive much longer into the future.
If you mean throw by hand. Nope, not possible. Thrown with some machine, sure, but it would burn on decent in our atmosphere. So it would have to be packed somehow or big enough.
Ok bit of orbital mechanics lesson if you'd like: Imagine standing on the north pole of the Moon looking Earthward. The Moon is carrying you to your right -> If you launch an object by sufficient means to escape the Moon directly towards Earth it will occupy an orbit around the Earth somewhere between the two because it hasn't lost its lateral velocity. To hit the Earth you must launch to your left

Might be able to capture a small slow rotating asteroid. A craft that can slowly span out a metal band to either side of it. Metal banding like what hold items on pallets. Then it would look like a large ring off to either side of it. Then after it achieves a geo synchronous orbit it can fold down and around the asteroid it's ring wings. That would secure the craft to the asteroid. Another craft sent there can dock to the craft to be used as propulsion. Once secured it could be brought into orbit of the moon or Earth. The bands around the asteroid could be followed with another vehicle to create a track around the asteroid. To make it easier to traverse equipment(solar panels electric wires,etc), to explore and to mine.

Maana Electric should consider developing solar power satellites for the Moon and Mars. Surface solar is limited compared to sats that can be in constant sunlight and don't have to be landed. This is especially true for the Moon since polar orbiting sats can cover the poles with fewer sats and that's where the action is. Starlink on steroids would provide power, comm and positioning anywhere constantly.
