Asteroid Mining: Key to the Space Economy

One of the stated concerns of moonbats is a supposed shortage of mineral resources in a “finite world”. Since this was first bruited about by the likes of Paul Erlich, the forecasts of a mineral commodity supply crash have been mugged by the reality of increasing supplies and decreasing prices of same in most, if not all, cases.

The moves towards a sustainable space presence also move us towards what would be an effective and practical way to access and utilize selected asteroids as sources of metals.

THAT would be the final (at last!) knell of one of the moonbat enviros favorite clubs to beat on technological civilization.
