C c_osborne SOC-11 Jan 19, 2006 #1 Can anyone tell me approximately how long it would take to refuel a small craft (10 ton fuel tank) from an ice asteroid? Is this something you would have to do manually (e.g. break up the ice and shove it into the tank piece by piece)? Chad

mike wightman SOC-14 10K Jan 19, 2006 #2 Now that's an interesting question (isn't it Rob ). According to CT's Beltstrike module, during a 6 hour watch, one individual can load 2 tons. That's assuming you have some method of cutting up the ice.
