i like this, but this seems hard but then again you know more. best of luck to yall but just one qustion over difficulty. Wouldnt it be easy'r to to get close and then launch a cable or metal rod to lach on to the surface?

but wouldn't this be quite hard, due to the fact that the asteroid is moving so fast...

with something like our current(both US & Russian) manned launch systems yeah, but using the hardware we're already devoloping for our return to the moon would adapt to an asteriod mission easily. Trips about 30-60 days so maybe add a transhab module, bigelow aerospace is already designing an inflatable based on the old transhab design that would work wonderfully.

@xtheritalinx well did you ever watch a space craft doc with the space station.The space station is moving about 5 miles a second and so is the space craft docking with it.Nothing happen's just make's the station bigger
