Concept

Space-mining spectral analysis service using advanced far-infrared (FIR) spectrometer technology.

Objective

To facilitate the identification and extraction of vital materials on the Moon to support space exploration and colonization.

Solution

Develop and deploy the MIRORES far-infrared spectrometer to identify and map lunar sulfide and oxide deposits critical for in-situ resource utilization.

Revenue Model

Service fees for spectrometer data analysis, partnerships with space agencies and mining companies, and licensing of technology.

Target Market

Space agencies, private space exploration companies, and research institutions interested in lunar mining.

Expansion Plan

Extend services to other celestial bodies and market spectrometer technology for Earth-based resource detection.

Potential Challenges

High cost of space missions, technological complexities in deploying the spectrometer to the Moon, and ensuring accurate detection in the lunar environment.

Customer Problem

Lack of precise, efficient, and cost-effective methods for identifying and analyzing lunar mineral resources.

Regulatory and Ethical Issues

Adherence to space law treaties, safe and sustainable extraction practices, and the prevention of celestial body contamination.

Disruptiveness

Could significantly reduce the cost and complexity of lunar mining operations and promote the sustainable development of space resources.
