Go Prospecting for Gold on Asteroids

Abstract

Gold rush has increasingly been flourishing with Asteroid mining in the scope, but space congestion and resources restriction could not be neglected as well. In this paper proposes a global equity model to assess the effects of resource allocation with sustainability in the scope. Our model has capabilities to deal with issues of space-based resources exploration and social development modality. We define the concept and construct a self-adaptive system which integrates social, economic, technological, ecological and cultural variables related to five aspects to measure global equity.
