In the harsh Outback of South Australia, some 850 kilometres north of Adelaide and 680 kilometres south of Alice Springs is an opal mining town called Coober...
Everybody okay? (Sorry I was off for a while. "In the bush" in Uganda and Kenya meant being offline.... - got to get myself better equipped to stay tuned....
Yes, everything fine here, Ueli........... Good to see the completed summary with the new additions. Will get it packaged up as a PDF after the 20th all being...
Jan, ...oooh - nitrogen, right! You're right, that's going to be a resource worth checking out throughout the big picture. What I'm puzzled at is this: Where...
Shortage of Nitrogen seems to be potentially a real limiting factor, Ueli. What I like about the Titan cycle, is that the separation process is a non-solid...
Love the economic argument Jan. I believe that's exactly how we should approach such issue and their tradeoffs. See my next mail. Â Ueli ... From: EOS Mars...
I have a hard time thinking of the big picture as anything else than a continuously evolving "film", so to speak. What we need to be careful about is to be...
from James Wilson spacetrader.net If you know where your going its a lot easier to get there. Big picture, overall transportation system, cities in space built...

Yes, I am preparing for the presentation as we speak, Ueli. However, the lecture centres on the processes of 'imagineering' as applied to the design process,...
Hi folks, Your choice of venue for publishing has different applications. If you want to publish in a peer-reviewed environment, you'll get lots of useful...
James, You are right: Knowing where we're going helps in getting there. The big picture I suggest we should really restrict to asteroid mining, knowing full...
Jan, Okay... What I get out of your post is the "hall of mirrors" conceptual approach as opposed to the linear one. Makes a ton of sense of course. And I'm...
Jacob, Hm, yes, I think we are a slightly weird bunch of people: On the one hand figuring out cutting edge stuff with regard to sorting out the challenges of...

Ueli, this mental model is to explore the nature of managing a project of great magnitude from the core. You have expressed very well, the multipoint...
Okay Jan, I think I got it: Your talk is NOT about NEAmining at all, but rather about how the "multifacetted mirror-design in time-stream" works (sorry for...
No problem, Ueli........... Yes, you are again correct, the presentation is designed specifically towards the audience in mind, while including all the...
Ueli, Do you have a synopsis or abstract document of all the work you've done? I'm finding it kind of hard to enter this conversation without a clearer...
Hi Jacob, The best we have is on our website at http://www.asteroidmines.net/documents/documents.html You'll find past milestones and other assorted stuff...
Yes these are beautiful but have little to do with us. They are the rare kind that does not disintegrate in the air. These have some strength even before...
No Jim, nothing to do with processing grits, but everything to do with shielding parameters. These are the kind of threats that will be much greater in LEO ...
I've again looked at the marvelously complex synergy map of Jan. Everything is there, haven't yet discovered anything that isn't, except maybe some minor stuff...
First go at "situations". What I mean by situation is this: An operation, along with the required logistics and equipment, that allows to generate an income...
Jim, Actually, it seems to me most of those meteorite "rains" (say over Mbale in Uganda... strange, I was there recently!) are the result of a "blob of...
Hello Ueli. I may be a complete newbie in space operations, but I've done enough projects in my life to learn that planification is an absolute necessity. The...
Ueli, to throw in a point here, as I have a lot of ongoing back-mumbles about this process as I look at it further, I come back to time scales. Inevitably, the...
Jan, it seems to me you are precisely following the track we have been envisaging for this "big picture" approach? What we need is the various "situations"...
