The announcement will occur later today in Santa Monica's Museum of Flying. Within just two years Deep Space Industries says it will send drones called FireFly to examine asteroids reachable in near-Earth space. Once is has proven the tech and discovered likely mining candidates, DSI will deploy bigger DragonFly vehicles to snag and return samples from the asteroids between 2016 and 2020.Ultimately, DSI's plan is to harvest material from asteroids and construct large structures in space, like communications platforms and solar power collectors. DSI has even patented zero-G 3-D metal printing techniques to help it accomplish its goals. Asteroid farming in this style has long been touted as one of the only ways to create meaningfully large man-made orbital structures, due to the immense cost of launching equipment by rocket.DSI is following in the footsteps of Planetary Resources, an asteroid mining company backed by big names like James Cameron, Larry Page, and Eric Schmidt that revealed its mining plans in 2012.

They then fell, discarded, into the Atlantic ocean, where all those millions of dollars of cutting edge tech bits just disappeared in the deep.

The longevity of man simply doesn’t scale to the unfathomable expanses of the cosmos. Our closest neighbor, the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, is 25,000 light years away. Even if you could survive the trip--suspended in deep hibernation or maybe frozen in time by the confounding laws of light-speed travel--everyone you know on Earth would be long gone. In fact, the temporal expanse of our civilization’s history would have occurred five more times.To travel the stars, we’ll likely need to leave everything we know behind.Under this light, The One-Way Ticket, by Joseph Popper, doesn’t seem so extreme. His proposal is for a one-way trip into space, a spaceship piloted by an astronaut who knows they have no possibility of coming home. The idea unto itself isn’t entirely new, but Popper has proposed this one-way voyage for a two-year excursion to Mars, at which time oxygen and food supplies will have run out for the pilot, and the ship will continue on into the galaxy.

It can’t be. There’s no blue ocean, golden continents, or clearly delineated socio-political boundaries. It must be some sort of cosmic record player…or maybe just a really great Photoshop…of something.In truth, these photos offer us a glimpse of Earth from the International Space Station. As the ISS circles Earth at roughly 17,000 miles per hour, Flight Engineer Don Pettit takes 30-second exposures with a stock digital camera, then stacks those exposures into single frames that capture 10-15 minutes on the ISS. The rotation is fast enough for long exposures to blur the earth into gilded landing strip beneath a steady rain of stars--a scene I would have never imagined as beautiful before today. Heck, it’s a scene I would have never even imagined before today.■","sourceURL":"http://www.fastcodesign.com/1669976/photographing-star-trails-from-space-at-17000-mph#1","readButtonCaption":"Read Article","sourceMagazineURL":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/flipmag?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.flipboard.com%2Ffastcodesign.com%2F5e75c0cde8cb9b8a21484262829fe312e5553be1%2F6183f1e9265810d81431cb09662ad2dca71145d2%2Farticle.html&campaignTarget=flipboard%2Fmix%252F30762208&partner=fastcompany&tml§ion=flipboard%2Fcurator%252Fmagazine%252FaH5uiTYFTFyCC321hUnOlw%253Am%253A3199563&fallbackTml","article":{"sectionID":"flipboard/curator%2Fmagazine%2FaH5uiTYFTFyCC321hUnOlw%3Am%3A3199563","partnerID":"fastcompany","url":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcodesign.com/5e75c0cde8cb9b8a21484262829fe312e5553be1/6183f1e9265810d81431cb09662ad2dca71145d2/article.html","urlJson":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcodesign.com/5e75c0cde8cb9b8a21484262829fe312e5553be1/6183f1e9265810d81431cb09662ad2dca71145d2/article.json"},"language":"en,h=0","articleMarkupJSON":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcodesign.com/5e75c0cde8cb9b8a21484262829fe312e5553be1/6183f1e9265810d81431cb09662ad2dca71145d2/article.json","articleStats":{"words":149,"paragraphs":4,"characters":894},"authorDisplayName":"MARK WILSON","userid":"fl:fastcodesign.com","authorImage":{"smallURL":"https://cdn.flipboard.com/dev_O/featured/30762208/fast-company-200.png"},"referredByItems":[{"type":"status","authorDisplayName":"Fast Company","authorUsername":"FastCompany","userid":"3199563","authorDescription":"Progressive, creative, innovative.

The discovery is being published as a scientific paper, but curiously NASA seems reluctant to agree with its conclusions.The heliosphere is the bubble of space where our sun holds its own against the strange things found in deep space, and it's incredibly vast. Its boundary has turned out to be farther out than our earlier models had predicted, and this has many implications for our understanding of how stars and solar systems across the universe may work.But what this news actually means, beyond some fascinating science that will keep physicists busy for years, is that a man-made object crafted on Earth over 30 years ago has passed beyond the final boundary of everything we call home and begun a journey into deep, cold, endless interstellar space. It's a philosophical point that should inspire and astound you, particularly when you remember that the space probe is 11 billion miles from us, and we're still in touch with it by radio and will be for several years yet.This is exactly the sort of news that co …","sourceURL":"http://www.fastcompany.com/3007261/fast-feed/today-humans-began-journey-stars","readButtonCaption":"Read Article","sourceMagazineURL":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/flipmag?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcdn.flipboard.com%2Ffastcompany.com%2F8b1bcfdd4ac4afb17f6e6792dcf921170af4fa98%2Fc6104ffa8969e06fcfa4551962942a2d6045dfee%2Farticle.html&campaignTarget=flipboard%2Fmix%252F30762208&partner=fastcompany&tml§ion=flipboard%2Fcurator%252Fmagazine%252FaH5uiTYFTFyCC321hUnOlw%253Am%253A3199563&fallbackTml","article":{"sectionID":"flipboard/curator%2Fmagazine%2FaH5uiTYFTFyCC321hUnOlw%3Am%3A3199563","partnerID":"fastcompany","url":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcompany.com/8b1bcfdd4ac4afb17f6e6792dcf921170af4fa98/c6104ffa8969e06fcfa4551962942a2d6045dfee/article.html","urlJson":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcompany.com/8b1bcfdd4ac4afb17f6e6792dcf921170af4fa98/c6104ffa8969e06fcfa4551962942a2d6045dfee/article.json"},"language":"en,h=0","articleMarkupJSON":"http://cdn.flipboard.com/fastcompany.com/8b1bcfdd4ac4afb17f6e6792dcf921170af4fa98/c6104ffa8969e06fcfa4551962942a2d6045dfee/article.json","articleStats":{"words":247,"paragraphs":6,"characters":1427},"authorDisplayName":"KIT EATON","userid":"fl:fastcompany.com","authorImage":{"smallURL":"https://cdn.flipboard.com/dev_O/featured/30762208/fast-company-200.png"},"referredByItems":[{"type":"status","authorDisplayName":"Fast Company","authorUsername":"FastCompany","userid":"3199563","authorDescription":"Progressive, creative, innovative.

No. This is art about earth, as told through space.In space, every gram of weight, every liter of oxygen, and every movement of the body has massive consequences. Which makes it no place for art, you’d think. But as Free Enterprise: The Art of Citizen Space Exploration, a new show at University of California–Riverside portends, space travel has proved incredibly fertile ground for artists since the 1960s. And with the advent of civilian space travel, as curator Tyler Stallings emphasizes, we’re only going to see more of it.What distinguishes Free Enterprise is that the 25 artists represented in the sweeping, three-gallery show aren’t just making art about space. They’re actually engaging in space travel, participating in the aerospace industry, and collaborating with astronauts. Take Trevor Paglen, for example, who has spent the past six years choosing the 100 images representing humanity, soon to travel into deep space aboard a tiny gold disc. A similar but older project, the Moon Museum, has an equally sublime mission.
