Class A asteroid tow mission - where's the asteroid?

[manfrom]

Hi Folks,

 

first time poster, long time lurker, so please be gentle.

I've recently accepted a mission to tow a Class A asteroid into Kerbin orbit. Except: I can't find any class A asteroids. I've got class E (huge) right down to Class C (Medium) but no class A asteroids. There are about 7 asteroids visible from the tracking station. Question: am I missing something? Do I need to send out a scanner, or just wait until a class A asteroid meanders into tracking station range? For info, I'm playing career mode with kerbnet on and standard difficulty settings.

 

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forums

You are doing nothing wrong. The contract is not for a specific asteroid... it is for any class A asteroid. If you don't currently have one, you can still do the contract later when one shows up.

Thanks - guess I'll just wait it out until a Class A pops into range...
