Did This Ancient Asteroid Cause An Ice Age?

Published 27th September 2019

Around 500 Million years ago, Earth’s climate was warm, and the planet had nearly no ice, even at the poles. Then an asteroid broke apart deep in our solar system, and our planet plunged into an ice age at the same time. Are the two events related? Also, will future Mars residents farm bugs for food?

Meteor Event | Villadolid, Spain | 27th September 2019 @ 20:40 UT

Published 28th September 2019

This bright meteor overflew the north of Spain on 2019 September 27 at 22:40 local time (equivalent to 20:40 universal time). It was generated by a rock from an asteroid that hit the atmosphere at about 111,000 km/h. It began at an altitude of about 94 km over the province of Segovia, and ended at a height of around 81 km over the province of Zamora.

The event was recorded in the framework of the SMART project, operated by the Southwestern Europe Meteor Network (SWEMN), from the meteor-observing stations located at La Hita (Toledo), La Sagra (Granada), and Sevilla.

Draconid Meteor Shower May Burst Into Storm Next Week

Published 29th September 2019

The Draconid Meteor Shower is a stunning natural phenomenon in which dozens of shooting stars illuminate the night sky. It occurs every October when the Earth passes through a stream of debris from the comet 21/P Ciacobini-Zinner. It's a periodic comet that orbits the Sun every 6.6 years.

Although the annual activity of the shower is usually low, the Draconids produce episodic outbursts and meteor storms. Major outbursts were detected in 1985, 1998, 2005 and 2011. In 2012, a completely unexpected Draconid storm was detected by the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar(CMOR) with an equivalent ZHR reaching 9000 meteors per hour.

The Draconids will be most visible between sunset and midnight when the constellation Draco is at its highest point. The shower will appear brighter in darker locations, so stargazers are advised to travel to the countryside for the best viewes.

Get ready for a spectacular night sky light show. Even for a major outburst of shooting stars.

This Metal Asteroid Could Reveal Secrets About Earth’s Core

Published 30th September 2019



NASA and Arizona State University plan to send an orbiter to the Psyche asteroid, which is believed to be made mostly out of metal. This mission could be the key to understanding the inside of Earth's core.

Between Mars and Jupiter, you can find Psyche, one of the only asteroids that scientists believe might be made mostly of metal and researchers from NASA and and Arizona State University will be sending an orbiter to the asteroid for the very first time.

Exploring Psyche’s terrain could be our only key to understanding what the inside of Earth’s core could be like.

Visiting asteroids isn’t new to space exploration with Vesta, Ceres, Ryugu, and Bennu being some of the most recent mission destinations.

And asteroids, for the most part, have been all the same; usually rocky, airless drifting through the cosmos as leftover debris from a chaotic beginning.

But Psyche is different.

“We’re pretty sure that it’s largely made of iron-nickel metal. And there are very, very few asteroids out in the asteroid belt that we think are made of metal or largely of metal,” Lindy Elkins-Tanton, Principal Investigator of the NASA Psyche mission, told Seeker

Researchers suspect Psyche is an exposed core of a protoplanet, which is a planet in its early formation stages and it’s most likely that the asteroid lost its rocky exterior during violent collisions in the beginning of our solar system’s evolution...at least, that’s what scientists’ best assumptions are.

And no one really knows what Psyche looks like beyond a speck of light, and so the 2022 Psyche mission will include sending back camera images of the asteroid so we can take a look at what a metallic body like this looks like.

MISSION TO A METAL WORLD: Psyche
https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/missions/psyche/
"Because we cannot see or measure Earth's core directly, Psyche offers a unique window into the violent history of collisions and accretion that created terrestrial planets. The mission is led by Arizona State University. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory is responsible for mission management, operations and navigation."

16 Psyche
https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/asteroi...yche/in-depth/
"Unlike most other asteroids that are rocky or icy bodies, scientists think the M-type (metallic) asteroid 16 Psyche is comprised mostly of metallic iron and nickel similar to Earth’s core. Scientists wonder whether Psyche could be an exposed core of an early planet, maybe as large as Mars, that lost its rocky outer layers due to a number of violent collisions billions of years ago."

Instruments & Science Investigations
https://psyche.asu.edu/mission/instr...nvestigations/
"The Gamma Ray and Neutron Spectrometer will detect, measure, and map Psyche’s elemental composition. The instrument is mounted on a 6-foot (2-meter) boom to distance the sensors from background radiation created by energetic particles interacting with the spacecraft and to provide an unobstructed field of view."
