Apart from Earth, there are many planets in the Solar System. For years, scientists have been looking for a planet where there is a possibility of oxygen and water being present. But so far no such planet has been detected. However, there are more chances of life on Mars than on other planets. Apart from the planets in our solar system, meteorites also keep rotating. Now NASA has told us that a 124-mile-wide meteorite ‘Goldmine Asteroid’ is roaming in our solar system, which is worth more than billions and trillions. This meteorite is filled with many precious metals.
According to scientists, many precious metals are filled in this meteorite. Their price is about 10 thousand quadrillion dollars. That is, even a small piece of it will cost billions and trillions. Scientists have named it ‘Psyche 16 asteroid’. It is 124 miles wide. This meteorite revolving around the sun is present between Mars and Jupiter. NASA has started a new mission for this gold-filled meteorite, under which an attempt will be made to approach it by 2026.
The broke part of a planet
The ‘Psyche 16 asteroid’ is believed to be a broken part of a planet. A plan is being made to study it by going near it in 2026. A group of scientists from California is trying to find out its temperature so that it can be easier to study. The ‘Psyche 16 asteroid’ was first discovered in 1852. It is believed that it was separated from the planet in a collision during the formation of the Solar System. Since then it has been circling in space.
Treasure of many precious metals
Scientists have made many guesses about this piece so far. According to him, there is a pile of many precious metals inside it. This includes gold, silver, iron, and nickel. Its value has been estimated in billions. According to NASA scientists, soon it will be found out that what is the source of this meteorite fragment? At present, the ‘Psyche 16 asteroid’ is 200 million miles away from Earth. But by 2026, more details will be taken out about it.
