The asteroid field.
(some lost in space back story here, will get chatbot to generate)
(data is newly generated at each refresh.)
While seeking for fuel your crew and spaceship come to an asteroid field POW. Each asteroid has
some amount of alien mineral called Napierium on it, which gives off an alien energy field that can
recharge the fuel cells of your spaceship.
Your crew makes a cursory scan of each asteroid and found its mass and the amount of Napierium on
the asteroid. The data is given in the table below, where each line indicates the following:
Name of asteroid : total mass of asteroid in kg , mass of Napierium in kg on the asteroid
Ths alien science officer tells you that the strength of the alien energy field an asteroid gives off
is proportional to the [mass of the asteroid that is NOT Napierium in kg] raised to the power
of [the mass of Napierium in kg on it].
Find out which asteroid has the strongest alien energy field strength.
And enter the name of the asteroid here.

your team has decided to approach an asteroid in the POW asteroid field in order to recharge
the fuel cells on your starship. However, due to repairs that are still being made to the
landing gear, it would be easier to approach an asteroid with less mass. At the same time,
you want to maximize the speed of the fuel cell recharge, so you want to choose an asteroid
with a strong alien energy field.
To implement this strategy, you decide to look among the top ten asteroids with the largest
alien energy field strength, and choose the asteroid with the smallest mass. This will allow
you to approach the asteroid more easily, while still taking advantage of the strong alien
energy field to quickly recharge your fuel cells.
Which asteroid do you approach?
