Greetings to all. Damn, I wanted to start this thread. <g> You beat me to it. I'm not a shareholder(yet) but I am looking at the company. Does anyone here know the legal chances of SpaceDev gaining unimpeded ownership of the asteroid they intend to visit? I realize they will have everything covered before any mission is launched, but this will be a precedent setting decision with huge future ramifications. I would hate to see it dragged through the courts for years.
Also I the one thing I have not heard is any timeline for the NEAP mission. Roughly what year are looking at here? I noticed this is not mentioned on their webpage, unless I missed it. It was mentioned on the news yesterday that China is considering a colony on the moon after the recent discovery of ice there. This could be good news for a company like SpaceDev, as something like that could reignite the passion for space exploration that seems to have been lost for so many years.

Looking forward to future discussion,
Justin Curran.
