Comets have VERY low gravity. Like imagine if you were to flick the comet with your finger. You would now be at the comets escape velocity.

Couldn't you just drill into the surface or something?

It is good to ask questions!! It is the best way to learn from others who have knowledge in that particular area.

This sub has been very willing to answer questions without being snarky.

And I'm pretty sure the comet in outer wilds had WAY too much gravity for it's size. Actually ALL the planets had too much gravity for their size except maybe brittle hollow (black hole)
