looks like a wee cup will help if you’re the one who has to steer this thing
Some engineer had too much time and red bull on his hands.
Correct me if I’m wrong but it seems to me that the spacecraft will not be in a “gravitational” orbit at all. It will have to continuously expend fuel to remain in a circular orbit. Weak gravity and all that.
Makes me dizzy just looking at the video.

The challenge is to orbit a body with a weak gravitational pull. Lots of corrections. But it will eventually enter an orbit.
Why does it have to orbit the comet, instead of just pulling up along side of it and ‘cometing’ parallel with it?
