Why not halfway between us and the moon? It could be an easy-to-reach halfway point for the Moon, a refueling station and very-low-g launchpad  other points, internet relay base, and also have commercial, industrial, and housing areas.<p>This could be an interesting new step in human modification of the environment - &quot;orbitforming&quot; (like terraforming?) a better solar system. It&#x27;s like razing a hill to make way for farmland or better city building conditions.<p>An asteroid that&#x27;s easy for vacationing billionaires, mining companies, and highly-pollutant industry to reach would be a great next step for humankind.
