“Where do you land, then anchor in place to accept the thrust, the rocket/impulse drive when the irregular rock is spinning at 12.625 Rev per day about a random axis NOT aligned on any recognized surface?”

That’s above my pay grade, but NASA has folks way smarter than me, plus AI to figure it out.

12.6 rev per day is 3 degrees of angular motion per minute.
0.05 degree/second

This is a fraction of wave motion on a carrier deck that jets land on every day.

Not a challenge.
