AstroForge, the California-based startup that recently launched a space mining test aboard a SpaceX rideshare mission, is looking ahead toward a future in which all of the resources we need can be plucked out of the sky.
The firm recently sent its 6U CubeSat, called Brokkr-1, to space aboard SpaceX's rideshare Transporter-7 mission, on April 15.
NASA's asteroid probe Lucy on course for 1st space rock flyby | Space
NASA's asteroid-hopping Lucy spacecraft has adjusted course on its way to explore distant space rocks.
Lucy's current trajectory will see the probe visit the tiny asteroid Dinkinesh in November 2023. The spacecraft will stop off at this half-mile-wide asteroid before heading off to become the first craft to visit the Trojan asteroids that follow the orbit of Jupiter around the sun .

Our corner of space is strewn with space rocks left over from the birth of the Solar System. These near-Earth objects, or NEOs, have orbits that bring them close to Earth's orbit. Although they are scientifically interesting and can teach us about our origins, they can also be dangerous.
Fortunately, given enough time and preparation, it is possible to defend our planet from dangerous asteroids. Small nudges to a near-Earth asteroid's path can have big long-term consequences, turning a direct hit into a near-miss.
Want to be an asteroid miner? There's a database for that. - Universe Today
Asteroid mining is slowly but surely coming closer to reality. Many start-ups and governmental agencies alike are getting in on the action. But plenty of tools that would help get this burgeoning industry off the ground are still unavailable.
The Exploitation des Ressources des Corps Celestes (ECOCEL) database is an effort by a French team led by Irina Kovalenko of ISAE-SUPAERO, France’s premier aerospace engineering school.
