NASA: Hubble Observes '16 Psyche' Asteroid Worth $10,000 Quadrillion
The Hubble Telescope has been scanning the asteroid 'Psyche', a protoplanet that has 90% metallic composition with 10% silicate rock. While examining 'Psyche' under UV light, the researchers found it has high-iron presence making it worth almost $10,000 quadrillion. 'The Psyche spacecraft' is scheduled to launch in August 2022 and reach the asteroid in 2026 with a goal to lean more about Psyche's core and compare it with Earth.
