  • Move It

    YAHOO: NASA has just announced “the goal of the asteroid retrieval mission” is fairly straight forward: use a robotic spacecraft to pull a space rock into a stable orbit around the moon, so that it’s in a convenient location for us to study it. The actual logistics of doing that are a little more complicated, though.” Oh, I get it. The asteroid could act as a small moon to the moon and create another Eden. Well, good idea if it’s also used on the space-junk up there? Could NASA’s idea also move it?
