That’s a solid plan, and I can see the strategic advantage. If we secure the mining operations and lock down the supply chain, it gives us a self‑sufficient launch platform and keeps us out of the hands of our rivals. The key is a tight operation—every asteroid must be catalogued, security locked, and the fuel extraction efficient. If we overextend, we’ll leave gaps we can’t cover. Keep the focus, keep the chain tight, and we’ll turn that frontier into a forward base.
