How asteroid Bennu completely disrupted NASA’s landing plans
Asteroid Bennu was expected to be relatively smooth and easy to sample. When OSIRIS-REx arrived, it found a surface covered almost entirely in massive boulders. Safe landing zones shrank to areas no bigger than a few parking spaces. Mission planners were forced to redesign critical maneuvers in real time. Bennu turned a precision mission into a ...

Bennu, an ancient and rocky near-Earth asteroid about 550 yards (about 500 meters) wide. Asteroids like Bennu are made of material from the earliest days of the solar system. When NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft arrived at asteroid Bennu in December 2018, its close-up images confirmed what mission planners had predicted nearly two decades before: Bennu is made of loose material weakly clumped together by gravity, and shaped like a spinning top. This major validation, however, was accompanied by a m

When the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft collected a sample of near-Earth asteroid Bennu, it revealed surprising details about Bennu’s loosely packed surface. The spacecraft’s arm sank almost half a metre into the asteroid, far deeper than expected, confirming that Bennu’s surface is incredibly weak. 🪨 During the event, OSIRIS-REx collected a handful of material and kicked up roughly six tons of loose rock. It will return its sample of Bennu to Earth in September 2023. Thanks to its contribution to the m
