The Psyche spacecraft launched Oct. 13, 2023, on a mission to a unique metal-rich asteroid with the same name.
Psyche is on its way to begin exploring asteroid Psyche by August 2029. Scientists think the asteroid has a high metal content, and may be the partial core of a planetesimal, a building block of an early planet.
Psyche To Swing By Mars for Crucial Maneuver
On Friday, May 15, NASA’s Psyche spacecraft will get a boost from Mars, flying close to the Red Planet to harness its gravitational pull. The maneuver will speed up and steer Psyche toward the metal-rich asteroid of the same name, one of the more unusual objects in our solar system, which the mission will begin studying in 2029.
