You are basing your opinion, as far as I can tell, on what you "think". I can't imagine a better thing for any person to base their opinions on. |

On Thu, 21 Oct 2004 14:10:17 -0500, in a place far, far away, "Name
Withheld" made the phosphor on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that: You are basing your opinion, as far as I can tell, on what you "think". I can't imagine a better thing for any person to base their opinions on. How about what people who know what they're talking about think? |

No, its not really flat, there are mountains and all kinds of bumps and holes. Are you guys going to make me bring up the canonical paper on flatness? http://www.improb.com/airchives/pape...i3/kansas.html |

So you're saying bring in a small number of asteroids, one at a time, then somehow use them as rocket fuel to build up toward a bigger object? I don't understand this idea, please explain. Exactly. This is based on the premises: 1. A mission can be launched from High Earth Orbit that can bring back some 50 times its own mass in NEO material. 2. This material can be converted into larger retrieval missions, and a critical element of this is the ability to manufacture solar panels. 3. That the population of smaller NEOs is much higher than that of large NEOs, and some can be brought back (to HEO) with a delta V of a few 100 m/s. In more detail, something I did a few years back: http://www.geocities.com/alexterrell.../Routemap4.doc or via the intro if the above link doesn't work: http://www.geocities.com/alexterrell/Space_Profits.html Alex |
