Second, there's an unstated assumption that the asteroid will arrive at Earth in a reasonable amount of time, meaning it needs to be moving quite fast. How the heck are they planning on slowing it down such that it can be captured into a stable orbit, *particularly* given regular perturbation from the moon? The magnitude of that problem is arguably much larger than any of the problems they do "solve”, and yet it's completely glossed over.
