This asteroid could be the most valuable thing in our entire Solar System. It's valued at $700 quintillion -- that's many billion times more valuable than all of the money in the world today pic.twitter.com/Ky6ENK0udL

#7 So you're saying ~~there's a chance~~ that a "plausible" one-in-a-billion shot at realising the thing's value might -- if I've got the zeros right (which I probably haven't) -- be worth something close to US total debt? Oughtta make for some interesting hijinks down here, at least.

#2 Getting there will be a bit of work, but after that, it should be super easy, barely an inconvenience. It's all down hill, gravitationally speaking.

#1 Sure. All you have to do is get there and get it back...easy-peasy.
