How would we extract resources from gas giants?

It wouldn't be practical for any Earth based industrial application. With the current space technology we have, the cost and time investment for hauling these resources back to Earth would far outweigh any benefit. read more

With our current technology, it would be too inefficient and would require tonnes of money. Literally, tonnes of money. Gas giants have an extremely strong gravitational field. Jupiter, for instance, has a gravity about six times stronger than that of the Earth. To extract resources from them is to remove matter from that field. read more

Carbon nanotubes are the material of the Future, which allow us to solve all problems with extraction matter from gas giants, in this or another way, the only thing we need is to master making longer tubes and making devices from them. read more

Uranus is mostly an Ice giant rather than a Gas giant due to a large availability of Water Ice, Methane Ice and Ammonia Ice. The planet is extremely cloudy with water clouds at lower altitudes and methane clouds at higher altitudes. read more
