The approach I think is coolest is to just explode a big tank of white
or black powder onto one side and let radiation pressure move the
body. Of course, that requires enough advance notice that a small
nudge is all that is required. You could probably nuke most of the
asteroids likely to cause us problems and turn them into harmless
smaller pieces.
