Space Mining

Space mining refers to the extraction of valuable resources from asteroids, moons, or other celestial bodies. These resources may include metals like gold and platinum, as well as water, which can be used for supporting human life in space or converted into rocket fuel. The idea is to tap into the vast materials available beyond Earth to support future space exploration and even potential colonization. While still largely theoretical, advancements in technology and increased interest from private companies and governments are driving research into making space mining a reality in the coming decades.
