Join us for the latest episode of On the Rocks, where Emily King sits down with former SpaceX and NASA engineer Jose Acain to explore a future that sounds like science fiction but is rapidly becoming science fact: asteroid mining!

As Co-Founder and CTO of Astroforge, Jose is working on some amazing innovations – think magnetic landings on metallic asteroids and laser refineries in space. No, this isn't a sci-fi movie plot – it's the future of mining!

Want to know how you prospect an asteroid? Curious about what innovations are on the horizon? Jose breaks it all down in this fascinating conversation that will change how you think about the mining industry's next frontier.

Trust us, this episode is pure gold (... well, platinum 😉).
