 Near-Earth asteroid   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The general acceptance of the Alvarez hypothesis, explaining the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event as the result of a large asteroid or comet impact event, has raised the awareness of the possibility of future Earth impacts with asteroids that cross the Earth's orbit.
Asteroid 1950 DA was lost after its discovery in 1950 since not enough observations were made to allow plotting its orbit, and then rediscovered on December 31 2000.
It is somewhat unpredictable, since an asteroid's ability to soak up heat from the Sun depends on its terrain, and the effect is also influenced by the asteroid's spin orientation and rotation rate.

 Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > Near-Earth asteroid
Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) are asteroids whose orbit intersects Earth's orbit and which may therefore pose a collision danger, as well as being most easily accessible for spacecraft from Earth.
In fact on March 23, 1989 the 1,000-foot diameter Apollo asteroid 1989FC[?] missed the Earth by 400,000 miles passing through the exact position where the earth was only 6 hours before.
Asteroids with a 1 kilometer diameter hit the Earth a few times in each million year interval.

 Amor asteroid - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The Amor I subgroup consists of Amor asteroids whose semi-major axes are in between Earth and Mars.
Amor I asteroids that have semi-major axes very close to Earth's (such as 1992 JD) can be considered Arjuna asteroids because they have very low eccentricities and thus Earth-like orbits.
Outer Earth-Grazer asteroids are split between Amor and Apollo asteroids, depending on the definition you use.

Docking with an asteroid can be performed using a harpoon-like process, where a projectile penetrates the surface to serve as an anchor then an attached cable is used to winch the vehicle to the surface.

The threat of an Earth impact was emphasized by the collision of the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter on July 16, 1994.
Asteroid (29075) 1950 DA was lost after its discovery in 1950 since not enough observations were made to allow plotting its orbit, and then rediscovered on December 31, 2000.
For example, it might become possible to bring asteroids (that are not flying rubble piles) to orbits near Earth, then maneuver them so that their small gravitational influence can move the NEAs to orbits that do not threaten us.

 Asteroids - their history
The gaps and clusters of asteroids correspond to resonances with Jupiter.
Asteroids which may cross the Earth's orbit,(and therefore might at some time impact the Earth, with devastating consequences if they are large bodies), are classified into four groups.
Asteroids with orbits which come closer to the sun than the Earth, are called Atens, and are given ancient Egyptian names.

 Asteroids
Asteroids, sometimes called "minor planets," are composed of rock, metal, or both.
The main asteroid belt is defined as reaching from 2.2 to 3.3 AU (1 AU is the average distance of the Earth from the Sun).
Since some asteroids were melted, others merely heated, and others left cold, this implies that the distribution of radioactive elements was not uniform in the primeval solar system nebula.

 Minor planet groups/families
Families are different and result from the catastrophic breakup of a large parent asteroid sometime in the past.
The Minor Planet Center holds that the name for a group comes from the first asteroid in that group to be named (except for those in the Trojan and more distant groups.) So far, we aren't even close to having a named object for these groups, or even one that is unambiguously in the group.

 Minor planet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sir William Herschel (discoverer of Uranus), coined the term asteroid for the first objects discovered in the 19th century, all of which orbit the sun between Mars and Jupiter, and generally in relatively low-eccentricity (i.e., not very elongated) orbits.
Near-Earth asteroids is a catch-all group for asteroids whose orbit closely approaches that of Earth.

Since there are no already made in-game asteroids, you have a couple options: You can either make the asteroid yourself and place it in its correct orbit for you to rendevous with, but making things is hard and time consuming.
At the center of the asteroid's mass the gravity is zero and thus it would be easy to achieve escape velocity (from the asteroid) by a thrust starting there.
Ideally we would use a drive which would heat asteroid mass to a very powerful, very high-temperature jet by converting mass from the asteroid directly to energy, but fusion power is something that remains elusive.
