Sustainable Space Mining
As our planet contends with resource scarcity, a potential solution can be found by traversing the great unknown – outer space. Metals, minerals, and energy sources have been found to exist in near-infinite quantities within our Solar system.
Based on known terrestrial reserves, and growing consumption in both developed and developing countries, the key elements needed for modern industry and food production will be exhausted on our planet within the next fifty to sixty years. These elements include phosphorus, antinomy, zinc, tin, indium, silver, gold and copper. There is only one way to support Earth industries and to sustain further development of human kind – it is to start bringing metals and minerals from the other planets and asteroids.
However due to the high cost of spaceflight, extremely limited cargo capacity of present-day fossil fuel spacecraft and inaccurate identification of asteroids suitable for mining, terrestrial ore extraction remains the only means of raw mineral acquisition today. The only solution for this problem is our antigravity propelled cargo ships that would be capable of bring heavy mining machinery and equipment to the surface of the planets and asteroids nearest to Earth, and then deliver unrestricted amounts of extracted ore back to our native planet.
Asteroid Mining
Modern day spaceships are able to deliver just a few kilos of precious metals back to Earth from space – our flying machines will be capable of bringing hundreds of tonnes in one go.
One of the main tasks listed in our space exploration programme is development of our space mining division that would allow us to extract large quantities of precious metals and minerals. The enormous profits that our organisation will enjoy selling minerals on Earth will be invested back to further development of our spacecrafts and further grow our organisation converting IntStelForce into a mighty trans-planetary corporation and a new independent political power.
This corporation would be able to organise and finance mass relocation of our members to the surface of Earth-like planets in the future, and to fund development of a new advanced civilisation far away from our native planet Earth.
