The CisLunar Economy. Whoa. The idea of a "cislunar economy" refers to the potential to utilize the resources and strategic locations between Earth and the Moon for economic gain. This could include mining and manufacturing activities and using key logistical points like the Earth-Moon Lagrange points for advantage. #cislunar #spacetech #spacetourism https://lnkd.in/gbsKFxCC

Investing in American innovators is the best investment you can make. As Michael Sheetz highlighted today, when it comes to space, America needs more shots on goal. Pushing boundaries -- even to achieve a small innovation --often leads to something remarkable and unforeseen. This is where the magic happens! But we need to do more. AstroForge is proud to be pushing the boundaries for what is possible in space. Seven Seven Six 7️⃣7️⃣6️⃣ gets that and it's great having them in our corner. https://lnkd.in/e3VYYAgt

Do you like Sci-fi? Do you want to hear from a very cool business? 𝗦𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴... When some talk about spatial computing, other are looking elsewhere. The future of business isn't just on Earth anymore; it's out in space ! 🌌 🛸 Have you ever heard of the 𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝟭𝟲 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗲? It's not just a distant rock in space – it's a potential gold mine! 💰 This metallic asteroid is estimated to contain enough precious metals like iron, nickel, and even gold to make everyone on Earth a billionaire! 💎 It has been said that 1𝟲 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 $𝟭𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻, many times larger than the global economy, which was measured as being about $142 trillion in 2019, though that should be taken with large a pinch of salt. This is why there dozens of startups like AstroForge working on this!! I found that fascinating! What do you think of that? Have you heard of space mining before? #space #disruptivemindset #sharingiscaring  

Unlocking Space Innovation with Palladium: Russia's Abundant Resource! 🚀🌍 #spaceisourcollectivefuture #preciousearthmineralsforspace Did you know? Palladium, a precious element vital for satellite manufacturing, plays a critical role in creating high-performance satellite components and catalytic converters. Russia stands as the country with the largest natural source of this valuable material, contributing significantly to the space industry's supply chain. Join me in celebrating the importance of precious earth minerals like palladium in shaping our collective future in space. Let's embrace sustainable sourcing practices and responsible mining, ensuring the availability of these critical resources for the advancement of space exploration and technology. #Palladium #SatelliteManufacturing #Russia #SpaceMaterials #SpaceIsOurCollectiveFuture #LinkedInForGood

California-based AstroForge is running a lean operation with a high-risk, high-reward mission to mine space for precious metals. Mining asteroids sounds like science fiction but has a very practical force behind it: as the world transitions away from fossil fuels and begins to rely even more heavily on electricity, it’s going to need more metals. But Earth’s resources are limited and many of the best places to mine for important metals are already being tapped. 

Supply on certain minerals are running low here on Earth, which has scientists eyeing what they can find beyond our planet. Mining asteroids - or even the Moon - is an idea that's getting more traction. And the process could one day be used to help create more clean energy here on Earth. We spoke with Gordon Osinski, Professor and Planetary Geologist at Western University, with more.

Tomorrow, May 2nd, 2024 @ 12PM EST, our very own Chief Space Economist George Pullen and Samson Williams will join the Oil & Natural Gas Conference to discuss digital twin economics for #Spaceports and microgravity mining in the 5th Industrial Revolution. Drawing parallels to the Space Economy's $600 billion value, they'll discuss the potential of "rare earth" minerals. Join them as they spotlight the role of AI and autonomy in this space frontier.

"2026: A New Conflict Emerges – The War for Minerals Begins" #war #minerals #ai The war for minerals has begun. As we approach the year 2026, a new era dawns upon us—a race to space driven by the ambition to establish a new civilization, powered by advanced AI. In this future, minerals have become the most important currency, surpassing traditional forms of wealth. Nations no longer deal in paper money or digital credits; instead, they trade in rare and valuable minerals, essential for technological advancement and survival. On Earth, the competition intensifies. Countries are fiercely vying for control over mineral-rich territories and asteroids, knowing that dominance in this arena will secure their place in the new space order. This race is not just about exploration; it is about ensuring the resources needed for building and sustaining human presence beyond our planet. As we prepare to launch into this new frontier, the stakes have never been higher. The strategies and alliances formed today will determine the power dynamics of tomorrow's space civilization. With AI guiding our efforts, we push forward into the unknown, driven by the promise of a future where humanity thrives among the stars.
