Humanity is entering the era of space enterprise. Mining asteroids, building off-world industries, and exploiting new resources will transform global wealth. NASA’s ‘Psyche Mission’ is targeting an asteroid containing metals valued in the quadrillions of dollars $10,000,000,000,000,000,000, a discovery that could disrupt entire economies. In this class we’ll examine who will control these resources, how governments might regulate space economies, and whether private companies should be allowed to own land beyond Earth. We’ll discuss the risks, opportunities, and economic consequences of the emerging space industry. My full italki profile page: https://www.italki.com/en/teacher/8425021
