NASA has launched a mission to the metal-rich asteroid 16 Psyche, which is estimated to be worth $10,000 quadrillion. The asteroid contains gold, iron, and nickel, and if successfully mined and brought back to Earth, it could make everyone on the planet a billionaire.

The spacecraft is expected to reach the asteroid in July 2029 and will study it using various instruments.
