if small ship rammed an asteroid, ship bounce away, im fine with that,  
but if big ship such as titans rammed asteroid and titan bounce away, that is a big issue,  
since this game trying to be as real-life as possible, why not the proper physics?

With proper physics, asteroids would be moving at several km/sec - so would planets and moons. Bookmarks would be useless, collisions would release kinetic energy (_1/2_ mv^2). I personally think that would be an interesting game to play but suspect a lot of players will disagree!

What about the asteroids in the asteroid belt in our own rl solar system. Are they moving too?

🤔 What made you think that is the case? If that was true we were not flying space submarines. 😉 EVE is not a simulation game, just a space pew pew game. 🚀

Speed will vary with distance from sun (closer = faster) average is about 25 km/sec.
