Reply to comment by Brbcan in Why don't we plan for more "staging" at orbital platforms? by gbbloom

This is something my buddy and I have discussed for years. It might be the end of unemployment. Sure, it'd bring a host of new issues, but one thing at a time!

The company that can make mining our moon and nearby asteroids feasible will be the next milestone, imho. So far, we've only been able to generate 'data' from our efforts in space.

If we can harvest raw materials and manufacture good in orbit, we've truly entered a new era.
