  1. On Point: Mining Asteroids

    http://onpoint.wbur.org/2012/04/27/mining-asteroids

    In the old days, we sang about fear and fortune way down in the mines. This week, the mining talk was way up in space. Mining asteroids. A bunch of rich guys with big track records and big dreams have formed a new company – Planetary Resources – to chase down asteroids and suck out their riches. Platinum. Iridium. Water in space.

    If it sounds like the movie Avatar, well, director James Cameron is in the venture. So are Google guys. And Microsoft money. Is this for real?

    This hour, On Point: Planetary Resources founder Eric Anderson and more. We’re thinking about mining asteroids.
