Asteroid Miners: Difference between revisions

* In Sergey Suhinov's ''Shadows on Mercury'', the heroes encounter this sort of miner in the [[Asteroid Belt]]. Each miner lives on his or her own asteroid, preferring isolation to companionship. They do, however, band together when the [[Big Bad]] threatens their way of life. Some of them even [[Heroic Sacrifice|sacrifice]] themselves by putting their one-man craft between the heroes and the [[Big Bad]]'s missiles.

* In the Larklight Series by Phillip Reeve, steam punk asteroid miners are hard at work among the asteroids of various planets in our solar systems, complete with minecart tracks tying the asteroids together.
