To look at it, you’d never know Earth is the place the Lord God chose to create man in his image, send His to die for man, and abide there forever.
He choses the “weak” things to confound the mighty. God’s way are not our ways.

If I’d known they were going to take a picture of all of us that day, I would have worn a nicer shirt and smiled a little more.

Nice! Thanks Red Badger.
Launched from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in October 2023, Psyche is en route to a one-of-a-kind asteroid believed to be the exposed metallic core of a failed planetesimal, a remnant from the early solar system.

More likely nickel-iron. But either way, we need to plant our flag and prospect for more.
It's likely that our prospecting will be done from one of the Lagrange points, using a (finger quote) laser (finger quote).
From a different vantage point, maybe one or more sats cruising in Solar orbit, when the laser hits, the sats would read the emission spectra to assay the composition without waiting for a close-up visit which would take years and have to be done one at a time.
And, a possibly related sidebar:

What if it gets to the asteroid and finds that it’s solid gold?Too bad that, given the cost of transportation, it would still not be economically viable to lug any of that gold back to Earth.

And even if it was, it would crash the market for whatever metal was in it, making it as cheap as iron.............

Stunning? I’m stunned! Or... Am I stuned? It’s an earth and a moon in a picture from way out. Kind of what we would expect it to look like, isn’t it?
