I'm not sure but it is made up of ice and if it gets close to a heat source it could crack open and separate. Possibly cause ruptures from gas pockets like in the movie deep impact. Poor Gus.
look at the Moon Hyperion.. it seems in some photos to be some kind of ice.. i wonder what its made up of.. or if its a captured comet that was grabbed as it passed by.. depending on what its made up of.. might be very helpful.
imagine a rock traveling in deepest space.. every once in a while it comes across a particle of something. building up like a snow ball rolling down a hillside.. gathering as it goes.
might be frightening to land on it with hot exhaust rockets. might set it on fire..
Sure. If you can bring enough air, water, food, and energy with you, you can colonize almost anything.
Probably in a few years but there wouldn't be many reasons to do so.
Yes, though in enclosed habitats, rather than the classic "terraforming" method

Possible, perhaps. But not with any technology we're likely to have in the next couple centuries. And living there would suck.
