About it

Asteroids are rocky leftovers from when the planets formed, about 4.6 billion years ago. Most circle the Sun in the main asteroid belt, between Mars and Jupiter. They come in all sizes, from small boulders to worlds hundreds of kilometers wide, and most are lumpy, not round.

Tap it and glowing cracks flash, then it falls apart into 18 pieces that drift off, tumbling, with a puff of dust. Then gravity pulls them back together. Some real asteroids are rubble piles like this: loose heaps of rock held together only by their own weak gravity.
