Planetary Resources Aims to Mine Asteroids for Water, Platinum | News & Opinion | PCMag.com

Planetary Resources, the asteroid mining venture backed by director James Cameron and other well-known investors, was officially announced on Tuesday. The company plans to launch exploratory spacecraft within two years and could be extracting valuable materials from near-Earth asteroids a few years after that, according to its founders.

Planetary Resources plans to go after water, precious metals like platinum, and other materials found on nearby asteroids in three phases.

Early Planetary Resources investors and advisors include Cameron, Google chief executive Larry Page and chairman Eric Schmidt, former Microsoft executive and veteran astronaut Charles Simonyi, Google executive Ram Shriram, and Ross Perot Jr., the son of IT magnate and former presidential candidate Ross Perot.

Call me skeptic, but if they pull it off ....epic
