Crash that puppy into Mars and set us all up with a big ole snowparkYou must be thinking of icy moonlets or comets. This moon of Saturn is 1500 miles across.
Crash that puppy into Mars and set us up with a molten slag heap strung out in orbit where Mars USED to be!

Well I didn't say how FAST to crash it into Mars! Point taken though... If you put it into a grazing orbit, you could use Atmospheric braking to siphon off some water each time it bumped up against Mars' thin atmosphere...I'm just looking for a retirement community with a view; Counter rotating moons and all...LOL!
