While they have caused catastrophic destruction on the past, asteroids are also thought to be key ingredients for new life, explains Bill Bottke of the Southwest Research Institute. In addition to mapping when the next asteroid will be on a crash course with Earth, Bottke and his team are launching a mission that will visit a record number of asteroids — and find out more about the solar system’s origins, one metal-rich world at a time.

$The DIY Rocketeer Building SpaceX Replicas of Self-Landing Rockets Joe Barnard left his background in videography and music production to launch his life of amateur rocketry, and he shares his DIY adventures in building rockets on his YouTube channel BPS.space. After he saw the launch and successful landing of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket, he knew that he wanted to do that too—so he took it upon himself to learn all he could about rocket science to get a job at SpaceX. Since then, many companies have come knocking at his door, but he’s decided to keep on forging ahead with his DIY endeavors to build, launch, and land fully functional scale rockets at a fraction of the cost and time of experimenting with real rockets. Motherboard travels to Tennessee to meet with the rocketeer leading that charge for budding DIY rocket scientists around the world.
