NASA’s Psyche team will measure the asteroid’s magnetic field using a magnetometer. This instrument is composed of two identical high-sensitivity magnetic field sensors located at the middle and outer end of a 6-foot (2-meter) boom on the spacecraft. The magnetometer team is based at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Technical University of Denmark. The Psyche mission is led by Principal Investigator Lindy Elkins-Tanton of Arizona State University. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory is responsible for the mission’s overall management, system engineering, integration and test, and mission operations. Maxar Technologies is providing a high-power solar electric propulsion spacecraft chassis.

    @sabychannel78733 years ago It' s a really great topic to go ahead. I really appreciate their afforts.
    it is not necessary that one should be a memeber of any one has enthusiasm to study, to know more. That much person would be a great inventor or could research on their interest. We already have example in our history.

    @farrider33393 years ago So psyche has a magnetic field being imprinted when it cooled off and reaching far beyond its surface.
    it must then be a pure ferrum asteroid. and mars?
    it also has lots of iron, they maintain, but only scattered few places where some magnetic activities got detected ~
    and not reaching into space as to hold the atmosphere ~
