PLANETARY RESOURCES APPLAUDS U.S. CONGRESS IN RECOGNIZING ASTEROID RESOURCE PROPERTY RIGHTS

Planetary Resources, Inc., the asteroid mining company, praises the members of Congress who promoted historic legislation (H.R. 2262) that recognizes the right of U.S. citizens to own asteroid resources they obtain as property and encourages the commercial exploration and recovery of resources from asteroids, free from harmful interference.

This legislation creates a pro-growth environment for the development of the commercial space industry
