I promised something more about nanotech and how it relates to space travel. Nano Space Technology is a cool page. Nanotech lets us create atomic machinery, such as Utility Foglets. It also lets us create really strong materials. The hull of your space ship could be a milimeter thick and still reliably protect against asteroids. But with a generous helping of Utility Fog, you could have a gentler bouncing effect, where the asteroid begins to slow down several meters away from the solid portion of the ship’s hull.
