Where do we find the resources to expand in space? Already there!
Listen to Asteroid by Killing Joke to enjoy reading this post fully.
There are many out there. Some are closer, some are farther, but they are an almost infinite number. They are made of different materials and have various shapes and dimensions.
Asteroids could provide the resources we need for human expansion in space and to change the paradigm of the economy of scarcity that affects the world. However, they could also be inconvenient neighbors, like experimented by the dinosaurs.
The updated Asteroids: Cross and Delight page overviews history, scientific information, and a rough list of the missions exploring asteroids. It also includes some hints about asteroid mining and what to do with the extracted resources.
