Week in Space Data, every Friday.
Asteroid Mining Corporation is developing robotic systems for asteroid prospecting and resource extraction, beginning with the APS-1 spectroscopy mission for asteroid characterization.
ACTIVEAsteroid Mining Corporation is a UK space robotics start-up founded in 2016 that has developed SCAR-E, a six-legged walking robot intended for resource prospecting on the Moon, Mars and asteroids, with terrestrial uses such as infrastructure inspection.
Asteroid Mining Corporation (AMC) is a UK-based company working toward the commercial extraction of resources from asteroids. Their roadmap begins with the Asteroid Prospecting Satellite One (APS-1), a space telescope designed to identify and characterize near-Earth asteroids for their mineral content. AMC is also developing the Scar-E space robotic mining system. The company aims to supply platinum-group metals and water for the growing in-space economy, supporting both terrestrial demand and orbital fuel depots.
