Wouldn’t be a bad idea to do space mining to create products on earth on the long therm?
Does not hose minerals have weight and could change earth net mass and therefore it’s orbit?
Could also impacts on landing alter earth orbit?
This question arraised when reading this other question about mining in space from in this sub: [https://lemmy.world/post/24125154](What is currently holding us back from mining in space?)
Overthinking. Just mine a bunch of iron, or gold, or whatever you can get and drop it in big chunks right on the planet. Don’t bother trying to land the stuff. Aim for Mar A Lago. Then drive in and surface mine the payload.
