On the hunt for Psyche.

On Friday, October 13, a SpaceX Falcon heavy rocket launched the NASA mission to the asteroid in front of Psyche, which is between 210 and 250 km in diameter.

All the images that you may be seeing in the media and the ones that I can show are illustrations, we still do not have a real image of this asteroid and its image could be quite different from what we usually see as an asteroid, since the interesting thing about Psyche is that it is very dense and is believed to be composed mostly of metals, mainly iron.

Some scientists believe that it could be the core of an ancient planet that was destroyed a long time ago due to a cosmic collision, so it could be an extraordinary opportunity to study what the core of a planet is like, but there is also the possibility that It is not a planetary core, which would mean that it is something even rarer, because it would be difficult to explain that an asteroid of its size is so extremely.

Psyche quietly orbits the sun in the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter, the ship will have to make a long journey of 5 years and 10 months, traveling 3,540 million kilometers to reach the asteroid and begin to reveal the secrets of this strange one. Metal giant.
