About Stephen D Covey, Science Fiction Writer
Arguments and discussions concerning various aspects of our future, both near term and for the far distant future. Topics include the threats to our continued existence, earth-impact asteroids, and a space-based civilization.
The following is my presentation “Technologies for Asteroid Capture into Earth Orbit” given at the International Space Development Conference in Huntsville, Alabama, on May 19, 2011.
The focus of this presentation is on a specific technical approach which enables us to capture an asteroid using essentially current technologies; the missions, tools, and complications of that approach; and then some asteroid selection criteria and a few specific asteroid capture opportunities.
