"It wasn't long ago that asteroid mining was only found in the pages of
science fiction. Now, with increasing interest in the commercial
exploitation of space, companies are springing up to turn asteroids from
things that Bruce Willis blows up, into raw materials for future
travellers and colonists. One such firm is Planetary Resources,
which is currently winding up a KickStarter campaign aimed at raising
public awareness about asteroid mining by offering the public access to a
space telescope. Gizmag visits the company’s Bellevue, Washington
headquarters and talks to the President and Chief Engineer, Chris
Lewicki."
