The reading passage argues that there are three potential benefits to colonizing asteroids. On the other hand, the lecturer opposes the ideas in the reading with several counterarguments.

First of all, the lecturer contends that scientific fields might not gain advantages from the colonization. He explains that scientists lack knowledge about asteroids. They have an insufficient understanding about asteroids that it is too early to project their benefits. Therefore, we cannot be sure if the asteroid colonization benefits scientifically. This directly challenges the author’s claim that colonizing asteroids enhances the scientific areas.

Secondly, the professor argues that colonizing asteroids does not benefit the economic growth and development. This is because scientists do not know how much minerals or ores exist in asteroids. Therefore, we cannot conclude whether it is more cost-effective to mine in space than using conventional mining. As a result, colonizing asteroids might not create more jobs or stimulate the economy. This contradicts the reading’s claim that asteroid colonization can drive the economic boom.

Finally, the speaker refutes the idea that the colonization potentially provides shelter for humankind. The reason is, most asteroids are much smaller than the Earth. Therefore, people will struggle living there due to low gravity. Their bones will shrink and become weak, making it uncomfortable and challenging to live there. This undermines the author’s assertion that asteroids can be a perfect refuge.
