Vmedvil2 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) It seems that astronomers have estimated that a asteroid named 16 Psyche is worth 10,000 Quadrillion Dollars, read more at https://www.yahoo.com/news/hubble-examines-asteroid-worth-more-194958108.html P.S. I guess this gives us a reason to go to space and mine asteroids. Edited October 28, 2020 by VictorMedvil Quote

NOPE. you will only calculate or dive into deep mathematical formulas like religiously irrational stephen hawking did. oh,well, I do not believe any science was rational when that science was not providing any efficacious side. 🙂 Edited October 28, 2020 by balagna Quote

But if you could somehow harvest the asteroid, in theory that would bring down mineral prices as it would interupt scarcity of Supply/Demand. assuming Earth human population was around the same. 16 Psyche could drive down all the prices once supply was near inexhaustable. Not considering mining expenses. Quote
