Luxembourg aims to be big player in possible asteroid mining

I still can't imagine how possible it is for anyone to commercialize anything that comes from outer space, more so in harvesting out of mining from those asteroids. At di pa issue kung paano ang business regulations huh.

 

Unless such articles are some kind of hoax.

They are actually legit:

There are at least 2 companies, Deep Space Resources, and Planetary Resources that are backed by billionaires who are looking into it. Elon Musk's Space X is looking into it as well as a "sideline" once they get the ball rolling on the company's plan for Mars colonization.

 

Space companies seem to be popping up left and right and funded by billionaires.

 

Si Mar, may teaser na for Hocus PCOS:

During the 13th to 15th century, the superpowers of the era, Spain, Portugal, Holland, France and England are on a race to discover lands in the Far East. They claim exclusive economic rights to exploit the resources of the lands they discover.

 

We are now in similar situation where the superpowers of today, USA, China, Russia are claiming space bodies, planetary and lunar areas as their exclusive properties, just by mere fact that they "discovered" it and have sent their men or machines to land there or take fly-by pictures.

Malayong mangyari yan sa Pinas.

 

Pwede pa siguro maging imbakan tayo ng mga na-naminang produkto mula sa asteroids. Kung kakayanin lang ni Mar ang umepal sa kalawakan, tiyak nauna na yan sa kalawakan para hulihin ang mga asteroids (figuratively) at gumawa ng eksena syempre pa kasama nya ang sangkaterbang medya.

 

Peace sa mga pro-Mar.

Malayo talaga para sa Pilipinas to lay claim on asteriods. We are not a Superpower. At least not yet.

Currently the race among superpowers is to explore and stake claim on something nearer to home -- the Lunar surface -- for future colonization and exploitation of its mineral wealth.

But that would take a very long time before it happens. Right now, metals and mineral ores are lying at our very doorstep -- at ocean bottoms. But we don't have the affordable technology yet to reach them.

Guys, what can you say na hoax nga yung Disneyland Pampanga report?

[gwapingsz1]

This incident puzzles me.

 

The incident where an assistant manager (not sure of the position) in Solaire died inside one of their hotel rooms.

Ideally, the people that were with the victim is automatically considered persons of interest since they were there when the victim died.

 

What I don't understand is why they were not automatically placed into custody.

 

Kumbaga sa sasakyan pag nakasagasa ka at namatay yung biktima automatic kulong si driver. Eh eto may nafile na kaso na Murder pero asan na yung mga suspect?

 

Also, sabi nung imbestigador sa ABS CBN TV Patrol (sorry wala link, panood ko lang), maingat daw sila kasi sensitive yung case, I don't understand kung ano yung senstive dun, may namatay na taz pinoprotektahan nyo pa yung suspect. And then later on, naungkat na yung Ecstasy, na nag party pill daw yung victim at yung mga suspect so pinoprotektahan nila yung Solaire? na ayaw nila ma broadcast na yung mismo mga empleyado nila eh nag tatake ng Ecstasy? or siguro sobrang inis ko lang sa bagal at walang kwentang reaksyon ng mga Pulis Pasay???

 

Asan na yung mga suspect nyo na after 3 days wala padin sa custody nyo taz may kaso na wala padin yung mga kinasuhan. Nakakainis, ultimo pulis di alam dapat nila gawin.

 

Lahat sila naka Ecstasy, so whatever their statements are it does not matter dahil wala sila sa sarili nila. Parang pag lasing at naka disgraya ka automatic kasalanan mo. The medical result and CCTV footage says it all.

Pinatay yung girl otherwise humingi sana sila ng tulong pero hindi mukang itatakas pa nila yung katawan dahil nilabas sa room may takip pa yung mukha.

medyo nag lielow na nga ang issue.

 

On Topic:

Senate Blue Ribbon Committee on Money Laundering investigation commence today.

 

 

In this case I believe that the RCBC manager is part of the scheme. My mom was a bank exec and she understands the process. If the the receiving bank got notice to hold off the transfer how come the manager still allowed the transaction to push thru?

Yes, I believe ms deguito was part of the scheme. But was she the mastermind?

 

The casino owners might be the mastermind. I'm sure this isn't the first time they did this.

[pinpoint015]

Because the head office allegedly was the one which approved of this transaction. In my opinion, the BM is guilty as hell. She reportedly made an unauthorized account for Go and also made 4 fictitious accounts which is falsification of documents which is a crime in itself. Furthermore, this falsification led to another crime which is money laundering since the money came from a criminal act which is cyber theft and made its way to RCBC. I understand the money was remitted to a remittance company so that it will be converted to pesos and allegedly delivered to casino junket operators.

The BM is definitely guilty, along with other high ranking officials of the bank. Also part of this are some officials of the casino and maybe the junket operator.
