# Unless you want to scoop up loose astronauts or rocks or stuff
Or have a big gravity-generator underneath
Or maybe it's an electrostatic matrix for grabbing spacedust and hydrogen and also works as a shield and and and other cool stuff.

# Should I google 'electrostatic matrix'
Or are you able to summarise it in a sentence?

# Like a criss-cross network of wires that generates an electrostatic field
Sort of like a giant glass rod rubbed with a giant piece of cat fur. Thus attracting uncharged and opposite-charged particles.

Why yes, I did just make up the concept.

# They do?
Since when?
Why didn't I get the memo?

# It's small. When you're statically charging stuff, you're removing Electrons. Hence the stuff you've charged is positive.
FUHHH TTSSATTSR OUT.
