Orbital ATK's robotic Cygnus cargo spacecraft launched toward the International Space Station on Dec. 6, 2015, marking its first mission since a rocket explosion in October 2014.
The supermassive black hole is 40 million times as massive as the sun and powers a quasar that existed 700 million years after the Big Bang.
The asteroid zoomed by Earth at a perfectly safe distance of around 1.8 million miles (2.9 kilometers).
Images show surprise changes to the spacecraft as it interacted with the atmosphere.
