Q&A with NASA Psyche Spacecraft Solar Propulsion Engineer Julie Li | JPL

Q&A with NASA Psyche Spacecraft Solar Propulsion Engineer Julie Li | JPL

This is a replay of a live chat event with Julie Li, an engineer on NASA’s Psyche mission, which will be the first to explore a metal-rich asteroid. Li, of Maxar Technologies, shares how the Psyche team developed the solar electric propulsion hardware on the spacecraft and accepted questions from viewers. 

The Psyche mission aims to help answer fundamental questions about Earth’s own metal core and the formation of our solar system. Scheduled to launch on Oct. 5, 2023, from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the spacecraft is expected to begin orbiting the asteroid Psyche in 2029.
