Sorry, but rocket technology is pretty much all we have right now, but in response to that, instead of a resource consuming chemical rocket, what about a nuclear rocket instead? If there are any volatile materials within Phobos, they could be utilized as fuel. I seriously doubt the feasibilty of space elevators. Beside that, phobos could act as a way station for spacecraft coming to and from Mars. [[User:T.Neo|T.Neo]] 09:30, 18 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

Lost information
Although I like the recent change, I do not fully agree with it, because the following information got lost:
- time until phobos becomes a real threat
- obstacle for building a space elevator
- several technological approaches to lift Phobos into a higher orbit (I doubt the rocket technology is the best, for it consumes vast amounts of chemical fuels)
