NASA's Psyche mission set for October launch on Falcon Heavy.

NASA's Psyche asteroid probe is back on track for an October launch on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy after a delay last year. The delay led to an independent review of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and its handling of the mission. Changes made since the delay include reorganization of the JPL workforce and improving senior management oversight of the mission. The probe will head toward Mars for a gravity assist to make it to the final destination as Psyche orbits the sun beyond Mars anywhere from 235 million to 309 million miles away, about 2.5 to 3 times farther away from the sun that Earth is.
