Earth Trojan

Nice to know there are "real" Earth Trojan asteroids: http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2011/07/28/science-earth-trojan-... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_TK7 Doesn't look like prime real estate, with the small size and high inclination. Although it might have been useful for an old communications station that routed signals from Earth around the Sun until neutrino comms became standard.

I can see some embryonic Brinkers moving there. Before the edges of the solar system became accessible, being on a hard-to-reach chunk of rock dancing 8millon K from the earth would be very appealing for someone wanting to get away from it all.

Re: Earth Trojan

I have the feeling these would probably reached before going to Mars. First by robot probes. Question is, when is it going to happen? 2030? 2040?
