NASA's Psyche Mission: Overheating Thruster Issue Resolved
NASA's Psyche asteroid probe, set to launch on October 12, experienced a lucky break when engineers discovered a problem with the thrusters just two weeks before launch. The issue was quickly resolved by adjusting the operating parameters, resulting in a one-week launch delay. The $1.2 billion mission aims to study the unusual metal-rich asteroid Psyche, which could provide insights into the formation and evolution of rocky planets in the solar system.
