    Out there in space, right now above our heads, is a wealth of knowledge. And in this case, we mean that literally. Believe it or not, in our very solar system, there is an asteroid that is thought to be the remnants of a planet core. And that means that all those pricey metals that we have to dig for here on Earth, are exposed, and ripe for the taking. Estimates put this giant space faring gold mine at 10,000 quadrillion dollars, and who knows, if we can get up there to explore it up close, we may find that it is worth even more. What would this do to our economy? Just how rich would this make everyone on earth if it was split evenly? Are there any missions planned to get up there? Oh, we got your answers right here. In today’s video we are getting scientific, while making sure to not skimp out on the riches, so we can give you the scoop on this nearby, giant, golden asteroid. If it piques your interest, you’re not alone. None other than Elon Musk has made comments about his thoughts on mining this bad boy, and considering SpaceX will be the company that supports NASA in this quest, you better believe it’s something we should all take seriously. It would bring all new meaning to the phrase, the rich only get richer. So sit back, relax, and get ready to countdown from ten, as we fire all the thrusters and blast off into the final frontier to give you the scoop on the absurd amount of gold floating around in our solar system.

      Dirt is not an electrical superconductor. Gold is one of the best conductors in the world but we can barely use it because it is rare end expensive. The day someone mines this asteroid the price of gold will drop to the ground, but the advances in technology it can carry are enormous, and the first company to use that technology will become rich or richer even if the price of gold goes down.

I mean...there it came, the same energy, smaller with its real space size energy, on the screen. Its a moody giant who smacks my head with a jolt though. I worth newbies will experiment with me about it or old at it will just be cruel tp us animal kinds because theyre harder wearers but year, it may straighten my neck.
    Im in a love river with it. It hasn't got neighbors. It has a huge nature so hard loved it loves at my skull. Thanks. Its incredibly beautiful. I hope you'll show us more, later on.

      but the volume of demand would cause a net gain on the overall size of the economy, hypothetically if one thousand ounces of gold is worth a million dollars before mining begins, then after the crash in price once mining begins, if gold is then only worth one dollar per ounce, after mining ten million ounces of gold then the volume of the goes from a million dollars to ten million dollars, so even a price crash in gold per ounce will result in a net gain of total wealth...
      What would you rather have, a thousand ounces of gold worth a million dollars or ten million ounces of gold worth ten million dollars?
