Based on the given materials, the article as well as the reading discusses colonization on asteroids. The author states that asteroids have several options which makes them agood place to do so. The lecturer provides several ideas to repudiate this claim.
Initially, it is alleged in the reading landing on and taking off from an asteroid is easier due to their low weight and gravity so it will be safer for people and inreases the possibility of carrying more supply. However, the lecturer asserts that the lower gravity can cause serious health issues for people in the colony. He alludes to astronautes who suffer from muscle mass loses and bone density reduction. Staying long in low gravity environment can cause svere damage to people. Consequently Low gravity has its own doen sides.
Second, the author proclaims that asteroids contain some rare materials and mining them can yield good profit. Yet again, the lecturer underscores that not only the cost to support the colony on an asteroid is high but also transporting the mined materials is expensive. Also there is no certainity in the price of this material as if their production expand their price will decline. Mined material is not a good source to support the colony.
The last point of contention between the reading and the listening passages is the asteroids accessability. The writer states that reaching an asteroid is easy since some times they orbit close to earth. On the other hand, The speaker mentions that albeit reaching them is easier but returning from them can be highly challenging since their route is not a circle. When an asteroid passes close to the earth, it moves away even further than moon or mars which makes it relatively far away to earth. So commuting to an asteroid is not possible.
