@Lazarou @skynebula My favorite “Billionaire in Space” story was Seveneves where the Neal DeGrasse Tyson character sent the Elon Musk character to go snag an ice comet, and the Elon Musk character did, but he dies of radiation poisoning. Boo effin hoo.

I'm thinking magnetic ones (not very practical though) but centrifugal force assisted seem doable etc...
