Nasa announced that an asteroid, known as asteroid 16 Psyche, valued at $10 quintillion is heading towards Earth. NASA also revealed that its spacecraft, set to launch in just under 100 days, will embark on a mission to study the asteroid. After resolving software issues, the probe is ready for takeoff in October on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. Comprised of gold, iron, and nickel, this 173-mile-wide asteroid offers an unprecedented opportunity for space mining. Despite the value of the materials present, NASA's primary goal remains scientific, focusing on planetary core research. The spacecraft will conduct a 26-month study orbiting Psyche in the Main Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter. Although Psyche is not the most valuable asteroid in the belt, Davida holds the title with an estimated worth of $27 quintillion.
