    BOOM: $10,000 quadrillion

    "Psyche, an asteroid believed to be worth $10,000 quadrillion, is observed through Hubble Telescope in new study

    A rare metallic asteroid about three times farther away from the sun than our planet could yield secrets about Earth's molten core, and scientists want to learn all about it.
    A new study published Monday in The Planetary Science Journal takes a closer look at this mysterious asteroid, using data from the Hubble Telescope.
    Located between Mars and Jupiter, Asteroid 16 Psyche is one of the most massive objects in the asteroid belt in our solar system, and with a diameter of about 140 miles, it is roughly the same length as Massachusetts (if you exclude Cape Cod). "

      If $10,0000 quadrillion worth of metal was accessible from Earth, it'd be worth about 50p a megatonne.

          Why 10000 quadrillion, the correct way to say it is 10 quintillion.

            Because for some readers it will be $10000 vs $10 - guess which one is more likely to attract attention?
