Are we living in the dawn of a golden era of space mining, or is this still a dream for the far future? The fundamental concepts and a selection of prospection technologies are already known to state-of-the-art science. The next necessary step is the selection of a concrete strategy. In the following chapter, we summarize the history, status, and motivation behind the technologies now available for remote and in situ asteroid prospection.
