It’s here! A sample from asteroid Bennu is now on display at the UArizona Alfie Norville Gem & Mineral Museum in downtown Tucson. Today’s debut included Dante Lauretta, principal investigator of the OSIRIS-REx mission, Elliott Cheu, interim senior vice president of research and innovation, and Violetta Wolf, director of the museum. This sample will be on loan from NASA for at least two years so come check it out! #tucson #museum #nasa #osirisrex #bennu #asteroid #space #science










TOUCHDOWN! The #OSIRISREx sample capsule landed at the Utah Test and Training Range at 10:52am ET (1452 UTC) after a 3.86-billion mile journey. This marks the US's first sample return mission of its kind and will open a time capsule to the beginnings of our solar system.
