'I think we all know that hope is fading.' Private Odin asteroid probe is tumbling in space


The world’s first private spaceraft built to visit an asteroid is slowly tumbling in space and the outlook is dire.

The spacecraft, called Odin, launched atop a SpaceX rocket on Wednesday (Feb. 26) on a mission to fly by the small asteroid 2022 OB5 for AstroForge, a company that aims to eventually mine the nearby space rock. But just hours after liftoff, Astroforge hit snags with the probe. The last contact was 20 hours after launch.
