Putting class e asteroid in jool orbit

[ianyikos]

I've started designing a way to accelerate a class e asteroid 2000 m/s to reach jool.  And it's going to require at least 20  S3-14400 fuel tanks, in order to have a twr of greater than .2.  And this is only after the fuel reaches the asteroid, so the fuel tanks will have to be attached to the asteroid first.

but where is the asteroid going? you have to catch it first

[ianyikos]

It's just there like all of the other asteroids, right outside of kerbin orbit.

But it may be possible to use kerbin as a slingshot or something, but I don't know how much it would reduce the deltav.

But why you want an asteroid in jool orbit? to make a space station?

[ianyikos]

It's just a contract.
