A package of mass 8 kg sits at the equator of an airless asteroid of mass 3.0 x 1020 kg and radius 1.3 x 105 m. We want to launch the package in such a way that it will never come back, and when it is very far from the asteroid it will be traveling with speed 208 m/s. We have a large and powerful spring whose stiffness is 2.7 x 105 N/m. How much must we compress the spring? Icompression] (a positive number) = m
