On the topic of things out in space anyone have an idea how we could get the metal out of this asteroid?

Ha! Is that why the price of platinum has dropped? Link

Here's hoping a chunk breaks off and lands in my back yard :)


Actually, this reminds me of something I was going to post in Whimsy and never got around to. If you found a meteorite in your back yard, what would you hope it was made of?
I might just go ahead and start the thread now.
