using hydrogen on asteroid as fuel for rocket to push asteroid
if there are mineral rich asteroids containing hydrogen,
then a rocket could be sent to connect with one of those asteroids
and use that asteroid's hydrogen as fuel to push that asteroid closer to earth,
but not on a path that points towards earth,
but a path that points beside earth
and then push that asteroid into an orbit around earth
an asteroid orbiting earth could become a supply of raw material which could kick start near earth space industry such as space based solar
and space manufacturing of rockets, space stations and industrial robots
