NASA Psyche Mission: Charting a Metallic World

In this artist’s rendition, we explore a metallic world named Psyche, an asteroid that offers a unique window into the building blocks of planet formation. The NASA Psyche mission launches in 2023 and will arrive at the asteroid Psyche, which orbits the Sun between Mars and Jupiter, in 2026. The spacecraft, also named Psyche, will spend 21 months orbiting the asteroid, mapping it and studying its properties. The mission is led by Principal Investigator Lindy Elkins-Tanton of Arizona State University. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is responsible for the mission’s overall management, system engineering, integration and test, and mission operations. Maxar Technologies is providing a high-power solar electric propulsion spacecraft chassis.

This mission renders a new meaning for the old term "Heavy Metal".

Sometimes I get real depressed. Then I remember everything that I have yet to see in my hopefully 50+ years left on this earth, thanks to you guys. And things feel a lot better. And my problems seem so small.

I'm looking forward to seeing how much the real thing might differ from this artist's concept.

The best thing about this is that we will be able to see the launch of another Falcon Heavy

£8, 000 Quadrillion worth of metals on one rock. Astounding. Can't wait to see this bad boy fly by.

props to the producers... videos like these are what really get the people excited

The cool thing is, a lot of the imagery in this video may be proven at least partially wrong when the mission happens

Kudos to whomever decided to show the presence of olivine (not gold) crystals.

It's feels so amazing that it's all happening in our lifetime. Just climbing the stairs of space.

The two most anticipated missions for me are:
1. Deploying the Web Telescope
2. Research of the asteroid Psyche
