Reply to comment by KilgoreTroutPfc in Couldn’t we land on an asteroid that is passing through our solar system and use that as a vessel for interstellar travel? by [deleted]

The only advantage I can think of would be maybe for some level of gravity afforded by the mass of the asteroid, but it would have to be a big asteroid to give anything useful, and that would mean steering it would be that much harder.

My man should just hop on Eros, maybe he can talk the Ring entities into going interstellar instead of to Venus
