 NASA Teams With Asteroid-Mining Company for Space Rock Hunt!

NASA is partnering with the billionaire-backed company Planetary Resources Inc., to launch asteroid-hunting competitions, and they want your help.

The U.S. space agency and the asteroid-mining firm are seeking to crowdsource new ideas for software  to find space rocks that could pose a threat to our planet — or at least be of interest to scientists and cosmic mineral prospectors.

The venture is the first to come out of NASA's "Asteroid Grand Challenge" which launched in the summer of 2013. The initiative seeks to detect dangerous asteroids and devise strategies to stop them from colliding with Earth as well as identify asteroids that might be interesting candidates for scientific exploration.
