Planetary Resources Ltd. held a press release
. , which has set as its goal the extraction of minerals from near-earth asteroids. The main goal of the miners-robots will be asteroids rich in water and elements of the platinum group so rare for our planet.

Among the contributors to
Planetary Resources Ltd. Google owners turned out to be Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, as well as Ross Perot Ml. - The CEO of the Hillwood & The Perot Foundation in addition to several other
respected businessmen .
The list of advisers is also inspiring, although it includes Cameron, apparently for PR.
The Internet is replete with news about this announcement and causes genuine emotions in most people.
Many say that this is impossible, but they reasonably object, the fact that 100 years ago, a man’s space flight, and even more, landing on the moon, was also “impossible”, and literally several decades later, they became a reality.
The company itself, like their website, was founded in 2009, but a press release was made yesterday.
If you believe the press release, the owners and investors mark the very bull of the future, namely the seizure of "fuel" fossil era of space.
And they have the means to carry out their idea.
Details and press release can be found on their website www.planetaryresources.comPS: I wonder ... If it fires, the corporations will start to take over the states. Landrush started?
