Asteroids

Have you ever considered asteroids for a living place, if you are a pioneer in the exploration of space? On any of these countless solar-orbiting rocks, a space station can be built where a spaceship docks. They can be stepping-stones during voyages to the stars. They make it practical to colonize places such as Mars. We have advanced so far. Expectations have been exceeded. Large, expensive rocket boosters will no longer be needed. Gravitational pull compared to earth’s is just a fraction. Launching is economical and an easier action. This would be a fuel saver for a longer journey. Our progress has made it a plausible possibility.
