"... $1B Psyche probe's visit to metal-rich asteroid Bill Klipstein"

They should have named the metal-rich asteroid "Fred Mertz." Or maybe "Barney Rubble." Nay, they should have gone with "Seymour Butz."

But "Bill Klipstein"? How boring.

SpaceX / Musk is working with another billionaire to possibly save / upgrade the amazing Hubble Telescope. Once Starship/Superheavy is functional, how about a robotic mission to one or both Voyager spacecraft. Replace the powerbanks and install the laser communication. Could be good for another 50+ years out where no man, no anything has gone before.
