it&#8217;s all speculative and hypothetical, because even if the space rock was worth anywhere close to that kind of money, it&#8217;s not like it could easily be brought back to Earth and there are

planetesimal, one of the building blocks of the rocky planets in our solar system: Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.<\/p>\n<p>If so, it could provide a unique opportunity to study how planets like our

crust of such worlds, they&#8217;re difficult to measure and study directly.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s where the experts hope Psyche will open up possibilities, because they believe it may actually be the exposed core of an early planet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The spacecraft will carry several instruments, including two high-resolution cameras and a spectrometer to determine the asteroid&#8217;s composition.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Psyche also has a magnetometer to check if the space rock has a remnant magnetic field, along with an instrument to measure its gravitational field.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It will spend\u00a0<span>21 months orbiting the asteroid while capturing the first-ever images of Psyche.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The hope is that by mapping and studying the asteroid in such detail it will help researchers<\/span>\u00a0determine how it came to be.<\/p>\n<h3>THE METAL WORLD OF \u00a016 PSYCHE<\/h3>\n<p>16 Psyche is located in the large asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and may have started as a planet, before it was partially destroyed during the formation of the solar system.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it is believed to be a 173 mile (280 km) wide chunk of metal, made up of iron, nickel and a number of other rare metals, including gold, platinum and copper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As such, it offers a unique look into the violent collisions that created Earth and the terrestrial planets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The mission team seeks to determine whether Psyche is the core of an early planet, how old it is, whether it formed in similar ways to Earth&#8217;s core, and what its surface is like.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The spacecraft&#8217;s instrument payload will include magnetometers, multispectral imagers, and a gamma ray and neutron spectrometer.<\/p>\n<h2><span>Why are asteroids worth so much?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It may be 230 million miles (370 million km) away from Earth, but this asteroid could be worth a small fortune.<\/p>\n<p>16 Psyche is one of the most mysterious objects in our solar system, and scientists will soon be getting a close-up view thanks to NASA&#8217;s upcoming mission.<\/p>\n<p>If the asteroid could be transported back to Earth, the iron alone that experts think it could contain would be worth $10,000 quadrillion (\u00a38,072 quadrillion).<\/p>\n<p>Its value would be large enough to destroy commodity prices and cause the world&#8217;s economy &#8211; worth $73.7 trillion (\u00a359.5 trillion) \u2013 to collapse.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a
