Growing interest in in-situ resource utilization, spurred activity in the space resources community in 2016. Lunar and Martian resources are of continued interest for human missions and outposts, and there is a growing focus on asteroid resources. On the moon, the target resource is the water-ice that has been detected in permanently shadowed craters at the polar regions. Characterizing these resources is the focus of NASA's Resource Prospector, RP, rover mission and the European Space Prospect drilling and sampling package Technology development continues for these potential missions.
