NASA has officially launched a mission to study an asteroid with more than $10,000 quadrillion worth of precious metals on it. The asteroid is literally so “rich” that it would make everyone on Earth a billionaire if its haul was divided equally, according to The Independent.
The asteroid is named Psyche 16 and it was first noticed all the way back in March of 1852. It’s 124 miles wide and is set to be the “primary focus” of NASA’s mission, which will take place in August 2022.
