This Rare Asteroid May Be Worth 70,000 Times the Global Economy.

 


American space agency NASA has captured a rare asteroid the size of Massachusetts, making it one of the largest objects orbiting between Mars and Jupiter, with astonishing value to boot.


Valued at a whopping $10,000 quadrillion as per Nasa scientist Lindy Elkins-Tanton's estimations, asteroid 16 Psyche is a true metallic rarity, made entirely of iron and nickel. A quadrillion is a thousand trillion. To write Psyche's value out fully, you'd need to add 15 more zeros.


The flying space rock was first discovered back in 1852 and was named 16 Psyche after the Greek goddess of the soul and for being the 16th asteroid discovered. Now NASA's Hubble Telescope is finally offering the citizens of Earth a closer glimpse.
