My job is to study the dynamics around small bodies like asteroids for the Japanese Hayabusa2 mission. The challenge is to manage to keep a spacecraft in the vicinity of a small body. It is such a "stormy" environment out there, the gravity of the asteroid is just too little to keep our spaceship in its vicinity.
