16-Psyche looms large in the drawing, a silvery-blue mass with gritty swirls of dark blue and purple running across its surface. Two large craters align on its equator and a massive golden crack creeps around the north pole. The asteroid sinks into white-capped bright red clouds while wisps of greens and blues appear from behind and below the asteroid and clouds. Surrounding them all is a golden disk pulled into orbit around the mass. The background is dark with a thin splatter of stars.

The satellite completes an orbit around the asteroid, and it is closely followed by an undulating mass of colors, reminiscent of the mission’s logo: pink, purple, orange, and yellow. As the swirling colors trail the satellite, they reveal the Psyche Mission logo. After the satellite has completed its orbit, the logo implodes towards the center of the screen, and 16-Psyche reemerges.

A robot stands 6ft tall with the number 19 displayed on its chest. There is rust coming from the edges of the plating. There are dents and scratches covering the robot’s head, arms, and chest. It seems to be looking at something in the distance with dark, black lenses–one of them larger than the other. The background is white, bringing a dynamic contrast to the dark bronze metallic glow of the robot’s plating.

This is a 3D animation of a satellite moving around the Psyche asteroid. The textures of the satellite, the asteroid, and the background were digitally painted. The animation is in 360 format, so the viewer is immersed and can look around. In the background, stars, the sun, and planets are seen. The sun emanates light and illuminates the asteroid. As the satellite moves around the asteroid, a shadow is cast upon it.
