AdvertisementAdvertisementNASA is visiting an asteroid in our solar system worth more than the entire world economy, but that's not why it's going there. Psyche, also known as 16 Psyche, was the 16th asteroid ever discovered, by an Italian astronomer named Annibale de Gasparis in 1852. Why NASA is visiting asteroid 16 PsychePsyche's origins are a bit of a mystery. Perhaps it's the remainder of another type of body that came from somewhere else in the solar system.

☆ Unlocking the clues of a metal world
  + stars: | 2023-10-06 | by ( Ashley Strickland | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
CNN —For the first time, a NASA mission is setting off on a distant journey to visit a metal world in our solar system. This illustration depicts how scientists envision the Psyche asteroid. Over time, Psyche likely collided with other rocky objects, losing its outer crust and mantle until only its metal core remained. “We have never seen the surface of a metal world up close. “If you brought back as much metal as likely exists in Psyche, then the metals would no longer be rare and the price would plummet,” Metzger said.
