Unlike many other spacecraft, the goal of the
Hidalgo impactor was to be as massive as possible upon reaching the target asteroid; because of this goal, the propulsion module would not have been jettisoned after use. The impactor was to carry few subsystems to make it as low-cost and maneuverable as

After a few months, the second spacecraft, Hidalgo, would have hurtled toward the asteroid on a collision course. Having "slept" for most of the trip, it would have then steered itself using optical sensors with an accuracy of 50 meters. Sancho would have retreated to a safe distance while
