US National Aerospace Agency is famous the scale of their activities and the flight of thought. However, these plans American scientists can be called the most ambitious. They conceived “catch” one of the near-Earth asteroids and hold it with gravitational forces of the moon. Asteroid rotating in stable orbit around the Earth’s satellite, will be not only an unprecedented spectacle available to every earthling, but also unique object to explore. A similar celestial body may be repeatedly visited by man. “Asteroid will be able to move around The moon for 100 years or more, ”says Pavel Chodas of NASA Jet Propulsion Labs. Since April of this year Americans pick the most suitable asteroid. By design 500-ton spacecraft will approach the asteroid, capture it manipulators and drag to the desired orbit, where the cosmic body will be held by gravity. When the need for a satellite Earth’s satellite will disappear, scientists “organize” its fall on The moon.
