Watching the August 18 update gave me an idea. why not be able to eventually create a docking bay. and with it you can grab an asteroid that is orbiting a planet? that way you can mine it away in the safety of your ships atmosphere. there could be a few ways this can happen. there could be a peaceable item beacon that will grab the blocks around it when you telleport back to your ship when you do. Another idea is to add an airlock onto the ship and let people skydive into asteroid, or just park next to them.
