Cheap Astronomy - Dear CA Ep. 129: More Rocks
A podcast about rocks, big and small.
Dear Cheap Astronomy – What's Psyche really like?
Psyche is an asteroid in the asteroid belt and apparently a very metal rich one, which makes it a prospecting target for budding asteroid miners. Pysche is also a spacecraft, launched on October 13, 2023. We're recording this episode about one month after launch when it's already over 15 million km from Earth – and its destination? Yep, Psyche – the asteroid.
Dear Cheap Astronomy – How is Mars Sample Return mission going?
Here at Cheap Astronomy we've often said that landing on Mars is one thing – getting off it again is quite another. But this is the intention of the Mars Sample Return mission – which has already commenced insofar as the Perseverance rover is currently collecting samples for it – some of which have dropped for later retrieval, while others remain stored within the rover.
We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.
