formerly Honda-Mrkos-Pajusakova comet 45P
3
to bring home “the ice”
4
Charles Messier 1730 – 1817 wanted to be known for finding comets found 13 – a good feat now know for publishing a list of "dim fuzzies" that are not comets used a 100 millimeter aperture telescope

Our solar system sun planets & moons plutinos asteroids comets
11
icy planetesimals Ort cloud Kuiper belt objects long period comets short period comets
23
Solid or Rubble Pile? components in contact regolith voids
24
to change orbit of comet High Energy Collision Boiloff / Jet Effect Attach Motor Gravity Tug
25
High Energy Collision Direct Impact Science Fiction: Tethered Momentum Transfer
26
Boiloff / Jet Effect Sunshine (Mirrors) Nuke standoff surface burst burst in previous crater
27
Pusher Tugboat “lands” on asteroid secured with guy wires periodically fires engine when asteroid rotates to desired direction long term effort

29
Puller Tugboat massive ship gravity as towline long duration low level ion thrust no direct contact, physical proproperties of NEO unimportant
30
Tug using Gravity Towline http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap051110.html
31
Gravity Tug Built from NEO seed ship (factory) build factory inside NEO build Tug at top of tower shift mass to Tug & launch use part of NEO as reaction mass
32
Cargo Ship harvest regolith or capture “small” object
33
mass driver cargo ship uses part of payload as reaction mass http://www.nas.nasa.gov/About/Education/SpaceSettlement/spaceres/illus.html
34
Attach Motor(s) Rendezvous (Mine) Attach (Build) Engine(s) Despin and Move
35
S.S.S. DaKasKova seed ship (factory) build manufacturing facilities build “jet” engines at top of towers build radiators & solar collectors use part of comet as reaction mass
