http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%286178%29_1986_DA
>(6178) 1986 DA is a 2.3-kilometre-diameter M-type Mars-crosser and near-Earth asteroid, notable for being significantly more radar-reflective than other asteroids. It is an Amor asteroid, which means it approaches the orbit of Earth from the outside but does not cross it.

>Asteroid 1986 DA achieved its most notable recognition when scientists revealed that it contained over "10,000 tons of gold and 100,000 tons of platinum", or an approximate value at the time of its discovery of "$90 billion for the gold and a cool trillion dollars for the platinum, plus loose change for the asteroid's 10 billion tons of iron and a billion tons of nickel."[3]

Nah, it was definitely space.

Good job, Space.

>Some do not call it true love until it approaches or even surpasses love of self.
>And love comes from many directions, programmed into us gradually through an integration of emotional associations, or suddenly, through genetic im-peratives.
>Some do not call it true love unless it defies conscious explanation. Indeed, many forms of love explicitly defy the conscious mind, as they must to redefine what matters to us.
>Thus love is, in a sense, the very foundation of consciousness, the helm of our will, the spark of purpose that turns a calculator into a directed being. A machine without love—
and I mean love in the most mechanistic way—is just a machine. A machine with love, now that is a dangerous thing.
>A spider, a snake, a man, a tinc, an avatar, an elder. One must ask of each: what do you love?

Good job, space.
