RIP goldfags

>We’ve already identified an asteroid worth $700 quintillion in precious heavy metals. Psyche 16, taking up residence between Mars and Jupiter and carrying around enough heavy metals to net every single person on the planet close to a trillion dollars.

>Can we actually extract this space gold?

>Yes, there is already a global market for asteroid mining, and Allied Market Research estimates that it will top $3.8 billion by 2025.

>They’re counting ongoing and future space missions, the rise in inflow of investments in space mining technologies, and the growing use of print materials obtained from asteroids in 3D printing technology.

>According to Allied, while the spacecraft design segment of this market accounted for four-fifths of the total revenue in 2017 and is expected to continue to dominate through 2025, the big change here will be in the space mining segment, or the “operation segment”. That segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 29% by 2025 “due to a surge in investment by public and private stakeholders in space mining technologies for resource exploitation”.

>“You can’t just think of space mining as something that will suddenly happen in 25 or 50 years,” says EuroSun’s Moore.

>“It’s already happening from an investment perspective. And the Asteroid Belt is just one aspect of this market. The entire global space market is worth hundreds of billions already.”

>Indeed, Morgan Stanley estimates the global space economy to be worth $350 billion today. By 2040, it will be worth a cosmic $2.7 trillion.

No anon, you fail to look at the bigger picture here. The bigger things you send to the outer space, the bigger risk it becomes. The bigger the rocket, the more risk it is to space debris and garbage that's been traveling in our atmosphere at a speed of a railgun. Even a debris the size of an AAAA battery could punch through rockets since most rockets are made up of light metals.

A company like SpaceX could build rockets that could be immune to these debris, however they must be a size seven times bigger than the Big Ben. You need nuclear-powered fuel to make the huge thing fly. The even bigger problem is that if it fails during the flight it will fall like a miniature asteroid and if it falls to the Atlantic Ocean, it will create a huge tidal wave enough to wipe out half of Europe or wipe out the entire New York state.

It's a dangerous work anon, that could lead the destruction of the entire planet. I work at a company supplying metal parts to NASA and the guys working at NASA told me that the standard rockets being launched right now is the limit, and if they make it bigger it could kill the entire planet if it falls into the ground like a fly.

Gold will never be mined from space. The minute anyone brings back any oz of gold from space the market will collapse. The only way they could do this is secretly, ie say you’re going there to mine rare earths and then sell the gold you bring back on the black market

The mistake is assuming that the drilling equipment is going to be as big as a BMW. Space miners are gonna have to be small and work as a swarm. As fucking sick as it'd be to have a giant fuckin drill plow through an asteroid, it's not yet feasible. Besides, NASA's big problem with the JWST isn't just size, it's fragility of the reflectors. I would bet that padding against vibrations is their key problem. On that front, miners would be much easier to send up.
