Can ice asteroids cause an icy ship
Question
If a ship went through an asteroid belt where the asteroids are mostly ice, could the ice in any way transfer onto the ship and give it coatings of ice in various places, or would there be absolutely no reason for the ice to form onto the ship's hull.
Edit Assume the ship is moving less than 5m/s relative to the asteroids and that's its outer hull is the sameness temperature as the space surrounding it. (iirc space is 2 degrees Kelvin).
It's proximity to the asteroids will be however close it needs to be for the ice to transfer to it, it would be helpful if you include this in your answer.
