16 Psyche Asteroid



The American space agency NASA is going to send a vehicle on such an asteroid which can get 10 thousand crore rupees to every person on earth. SpaceX will help NASA in sending a vehicle to this asteroid. SpaceX will give its Falcon Heavy rocket to the US space agency for this mission. The name of this asteroid is 16 Psyche (16 Psyche). The US space agency NASA Psyche Asteroid Explorer mission will launch on August 1, 2022.

Before this, SpaceX will launch the Falcon Heavy rocket in June. The Falcon Heavy rocket will be launched in June from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida with the launch of the US Space Force's USSF-44 mission from Launch Pad 39A.  Through this rocket from NASA, two payloads will be deployed in Geosynchronous Orbit. In this one is the Tetra-1 microsatellite of the US Army, while no information has been given about the other.

The Psyche spacecraft to be launched from SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket is almost ready.  Earlier it was not decided from which rocket this spacecraft would be launched. After inserting information in NASA's launch schedule, it has become clear that this mission will be launched from Falcon Heavy rocket.

The asteroid that can make every person on earth the owner of 10 thousand crores is made of iron, nickel and silica. If the metals present in the asteroid are sold, then every person can become the owner of billions.

The spacecraft to be sent on this asteroid has also been named Psyche. The Psyche spacecraft, which will be launched in August 2022, will come out of the gravitational field of Mars in May 2023, after which it will reach the orbit of the 16 Psyche asteroid in the year 2026. After this, it will orbit the asteroid for 21 months.

The science and engineering system of the spacecraft has been prepared by NASA.The US government has also given green signal for this mission. NASA has said that the total cost of iron present on 16 Psyche asteroids is about 10,000 quadrillion pounds (10,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds). This means that every person present on the earth will become the owner of 10 thousand crores.

This asteroid is 226 km wide, which will be studied by NASA's Psyche spacecraft. The critical design stage of the spacecraft has been completed. The spacecraft will have a solar-electric propulsion system, three science instruments, electronics and a power subsystem. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory will monitor this spacecraft.

Lindy Elkins Taunton said that there are 16 Psyche asteroids in the asteroid belt rotating between Mars and Jupiter, which revolve around the sun in five years. Lindy is a professor at Arizona State University and principal investigator for the Psyche Mission.

The weight of this asteroid is only about one percent of the weight of the Earth's Moon. NASA has said that there is no plan to bring this asteroid near the Earth. There is a plan to test the iron present on it.
