In keeping with the Luxembourg government's initiative to support the futureuse of space resources, ASIME 2018 was held in Belval, Luxembourg on April16-17, 2018.  The goal of ASIME 2018: Asteroid Intersections with Mine Engineering, was tofocus on asteroid composition for advancing the asteroid in-space resourceutilisation domain. What do we know about asteroid composition fromremote-sensing observations? What are the potential caveats in theinterpretation of Earth-based spectral observations? What are the next steps toimprove our knowledge on asteroid composition by means of ground-based andspace-based observations and asteroid rendez-vous and sample return missions?How can asteroid mining companies use this knowledge?  ASIME 2018 was a two-day workshop of almost 70 scientists and engineers inthe context of the engineering needs of space missions with in-space asteroidutilisation. The 21 Questions from the asteroid mining companies were sortedinto the four asteroid science themes: 1) Potential Targets, 2)Asteroid-Meteorite Links, 3) In-Situ Measurements and 4) LaboratoryMeasurements. The Answers to those Questions were provided by the scientistswith their conference presentations and collected by A. Graps or editeddirectly into an open-access collaborative Google document or inserted by A.Graps using additional reference materials. During the ASIME 2018, first dayand second day Wrap-Ups, the answers to the questions were discussed further.New readers to the asteroid mining topic may find the Conversation boxes andthe Mission Design discussions especially interesting.
