[QUOTE="Eltab, post: 7401760, member: 6803337"] When this becomes apparent, the owners would try to fold it back up (however they opened it in the first place), or somebody would try to shoot big holes in it, or rip it up, or make it move. One potential 'disaster' adventure: An asteroid that is supposed to arrive at L5 for mining has been diverted to pass through L1 and the solar sail / shade. The PCs could: - go chop the asteroid into tiny little pieces (what was that Bruce Willis movie? [I] Armageddon[/I]?) - rendezvous with and remove all foreign hardware from the asteroid - divert its course again, to something random (and far from any further collision) - divert it back to original trajectory: L5 - maybe make sure it DOES hit L1 and sweep the whole malfunctioning contraption along with it: Ice Age problem solved! - rendezvous with the asteroid and 'close escort' it - so nobody else can mess with it. - find out who is messing with 'our' asteroid in the first place - get into the legal arguments over how you can / can't claim an asteroid as your property, personally or as a corporation, in the first place [/QUOTE]
