I am thinking something along the lines of a Nebula Call Starship with gun rack and a whaling ship harpoon.

Thanks GeronL. Not to piss and moan about any plans for human spaceflight, but human visits to the asteroids appears to me to be one of the dumber ideas I've seen out of this White House -- and that's saying something. OTOH:

Astronomy Picture of the Day -- A Flight of Helios (post 15)

And any human spaceflight will require booster development. The a-holes running the US space bureaucracy will of course eschew that and buy Russian engines.
