The hairs that they have, that s how a spider is able to climb the wall. it has quite a bit of force to it, and i have been told, only anecdotally, we ve not tested this, but if you were to put one on your head, it would have the force required to crush your skull. oh good. which is lovely, isn t it? well, i mean, if you are going to make an asteroid climbing robot, make a killer asteroid climbing robot. but really, is this the way to solve our resource problem? after all, it is all a fair way off yet. as well as designing the rest of the robot, with the help of tohoko university injapan, the asteroid mining corporation need to find the right asteroid to mine. now, that is done by looking at the chemical composition of meteorites, to identify what their parent bodies, in this case asteroids, are made of. so, there you go, each element has been resigned randomly a colour. so, in this image, the green is iron, all the orange is calcium, the pink is silicon, the cyan is magnesium and there

Make it a killer asteroid climbing robot. but really, is this the way to solve our resource problem? after all, it is all a fair way off yet. as well as designing the rest of the robot, with help of tohoko university injapan, the asteroid mining corporation need to find the right asteroid to mine. now that is done by looking at the chemical composition of meteorites, to identify what their parent bodies, in this case asteroids, are made of. so there you go, each element has been resigned randomly a colour. so in this image the green is iron, all the orange is calcium, the pink is silicon, the cyan is magnesium and there is also some darker green that is oxygen. is it the case that you will look through all your meteorite samples, and one day you will come across something that s, say, rich in platinum, and then that gives them then the green light to go get it? absolutely. if we find a concentration of platinum in one of our meteorites we can certainly tell the amc guys, 0k, the types of meteorites
