It sounds cool sure, but what resources do we even want from asteroids? We have plenty rocks and ice on earth and even something like iron ore is just 0,08$ per kilo. Getting that kilo to LEO is 2200$ and getting cheaper every year. We have all the resources and infrastructure we need right here on earth while absolutely no one has any idea how to manufacture things in space.
