It gets below absolute zero on Star Trek TNG on occasion. Lots of vortexes too. Vortexi?
First you need to split up larger asteroids. The most effective strategy is to position your ship in a corner.

Movie ref by any chance? Haven't seen that one in a while. "Us Yellowbeards are never more dangerous than when we're dead!"

Robert Rapier's a pretty solid researcher in energy matters, and not the type to whitewash topics like these, which got him branded as a shill for Big Oil (he's ex Conoco-Phillips) when he began writing about peak oil. On that particular subject he's been really on the money - he envisioned what he termed "Peak Lite" back in 2006, which means no actual decline in overall supply but little in the way of actual gains and persistent high prices, which is what has actually transpired in the intervening years. This won him no favors with types who latched on to the whole peak oil subject as a pretext for imminent collapse of civilization, of course.
Probably a typo, but just as readily sounds like one of his coinages.
I often think back to an interview or article where, in re: Schismatrix, Bruce said he was no longer bothering to set stories in outer space, as, contrary to most people's expectations, you could conjure up just as weird or weirder scenarios in a place like Chattanooga, Tennessee.

Myself, I've long since moved past the originals and prefer to listen to Lennon/McCartney's work as performed by dogs.
