InterstellarAsteroid:

Path: Orbit/StraightLine

% Set up and run the trajectory simulation for an asteroid intercept.
 I1/'Oumuamua is a recent interstellar asteroid that passed through
 the solar system. This shows that a fusion powered spacecraft could
 have intercepted the asteroid.

 Simulation in the gravity field of the sun.
