The reading and the lecture are both about colonisation on asteroids. The article's author feels that comparing to Mars or Moon colonisation, sending humans to asteroids is a smarter idea. The lecturer disputes the claims made in the article. His position is that the idea that asteroids colonisation is not practical and has a lot of downsides.
According to the reading, low gravity will be a merit for colonisation. The article mentions that low gravity will give spaceships a safer landing and increase spacecraft's shipping capacity. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that low gravity makes astronauts facing more health risks.
Additionally, he points out that humans tend to lose their muscle masses in a long-time low gravity environment and the bone density also decreases.
Secondly, the author suggests that rare metals on asteroids will support the colonising missions more financially. The article says that asteroids are enriched with valuable metals, and the exploitation will be profitable. The lecturer, however, asserts that some additional factors may contradict the profit of metal exploitation. He says that the cost to support the transport of metals will be extremely high and reduce the profit, and the price of those metals will also decrease if there is more on quantities.
Finally, the author posits that the periodical movement of asteroids allows humans to take less time to reach them. The author contends that travel will be much easier and affordable if the distance between earth and asteroids is close enough. In contrast, the lecturer’s stance is that it will become a challenge for humans to return from asteroids. He notes that the orbits of the asteroids are close to earth sometimes but will also move away, and astronauts have to travel a further distance if they wish to go back.
