Based on the given materials, the article as well as the lecture discusses sending people to asteroids, which are massive amounts of rocky and ice-made objects in the solar system. The author states that there are several viable advantages that make these expeditions the best colonization option. That being said, the lecturer provides several ideas to repudiate this claim.
Initially, the writer says that since asteroids are smaller than other planets, they have got lower gravity which helps spaceships to have easier both landing and taking off. However, the speaker explains that having lower gravity will put the project in danger, owing to the fact that low gravity environments cause decreases in both people's bones density and human beings' muscle mass, which result in health problems in the long run.
Second, the author proclaims that there would have been valuable metals in some asteroids, which can be mined and sold to obtain financial benefits. Yet again, the lecturer underscores that considering additional factors, it cannot be true, because not only will mining and transportation processes cost a lot and decrease the mentioned profit but also, whenever those valuable metals are supplied in the market, there is no guarantee to have fixed prices, and the price may fall.
The final point of contention between the reading and the listening passage is how easy is to reach these asteroids. The writer thinks that periodically asteroids come close to the earth and by using this opportunity people can reach the asteroids much more affordable and easier than reaching to other planets. On the other hand, the lecturer explains that although asteroids' orbits make reaching easier, whenever spaceships try to reach these objects, it is really hard for them the return. Actually, the asteroids' orbits are strange, thus, if the asteroids move away from the earth, colonized people should travel further more than when they travel to the Mars.
