Directions: Summarize the points made in the lecture, being sure to explain
how they challenge the specific points made in the reading passage.
Asteroids are large space objects made of rock and ice. There are hundreds of thousands of asteroids in our
solar system. Though we often hear ideas about establishing colonies of humans to live and work on our
Moon or our neighboring planet, Mars, some think that sending people to an asteroid would actually be the
best colonization option for a number of reasons. Low Gravity: To begin with, asteroids are ofter much
smaller than planets, so they have lower gravity. When landing a spaceship, the craft would not be pulled as
strongly or as forcefully toward the asteroid's surface, making the landing safer than landing on the Moon or
Mars; it would also allow a spacecraft to carry much more equipment needed to set up the colony. It would
also be easier for the spacecraft to take off again, so the spaceship would need to carry considerably less
_fuel for the trip back to Earth. Mining Valuable Metals: Next, some asteroids are rich in valuable
elements and precious metals that are relatively rare on Earth, such as gold and platinum. An asteroid
colony would be extremely profitable and a good source of these raw materials. The colonists or
businesses sponsoring them could more than pay for the cost of their support by mining minerals and
sending them back to Earth. Easy to Reach: Finally, asteroids are a good option for colonization
because some of them would be very easy to reach. There are a number of asteroids that periodically
come within or near Earth's orbit. Some of them actually get closer to Earth than our Moon. So these
asteroids would be much easier and more affordable to get to and get back from than a planet like
Mars, which would require a two-year trip in each direction.
