Cost Drivers: Safety, Labor and US Economics

In this episode, Jack, Matt, and Chap break down the supply chain reality of platinum group metals (PGMs); why mining asteroids isn’t just cool, but increasingly necessary. They talk about why it’s hard to mine PGMs on Earth, why South Africa’s supply is risky, and how AstroForge’s approach enables cost-efficient access to these critical metals. Also: we get closer to defining “vaporizing aliens” as a brand value.
