umm, the main point is that it is 50 light years away. Thats a long way from Kansas friends.

The point about flooding the market is valid, but lets take Nickle Iron asteroids, I have seen figures that boggle the mind on the current market values. If one was get one of them and able to mine/refine it in space, I could see huge benefit's, that would be good for Earth, at least we wouldnt need to mine the Earth anymore. Then someone would be blamed taking job off of Earth...never ending cycle.
