Ceres, More Fresh Water Than Earth!?, From Space.com Options

What's even worse is that they put it under the heading of "space debris".

I realize that there is room for argument over definitions, but I do not think that anybody can look at Ceres and call it "debris".

If the idea of using people is deemed somehow unfeasible, rabbits or rats or even monkeys could always be used, too.

It is a good idea - someone will do it eventually.  If not NASA or ESA or whoever, then a corporation who wants to see just what their space miners can handle..

You mean like this?

Yeah. Cool stuff. If I had an infinite amount of money, well, I'd fund everything, but this would be one of the first.
