FIELD: astronautics.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aerospace engineering. In method of changing orbit of asteroid its own resources are used as fuel for rocket engine installed on asteroid and creating force pulse directed through centre of mass of asteroid. After the asteroid portrait is analysed and plotted, a constellation of spacecrafts containing a complex of blocks of the asteroid impact system, blocks are softly planted on asteroid surface at given points with their force attachment to asteroid surface, testing is performed and starting the process of collecting initial natural resources for processing thereof into fuel components for a rocket engine, accumulation, storage and transmission of said components to tanks of the main rocket engine and asteroid orientation engines, creation of required margin and implementation of process of periodic fuel components replenishment with subsequent activation of main rocket engine at specified moments of time.
EFFECT: technical result of invention is higher efficiency of action on dangerous space body.
