About this listen

In this episode, Alex and Ethan return to where the podcast started - space. Here they deal with one of the most interesting, and potentially the most economically impactful, aspect of space travel. Asteroid mining is propelling a new gold rush of private firms and public capital, all racing to unlock the riches in the sky. However, is asteroid mining perhaps too similar to the gold rush? Will the first trillionaires be asteroid miners, or is it simply another place to get resources? And even if you decided to mine asteroids, where are they and how do you do it? All these questions and more are explored in this episode, where Alex and Ethan dive deep into the economics and technology behind asteroid mining.
