Base info: NASA landed a spacecraft on an asteroid 200 million miles away on. The mission, called Osiris-Rex, wants to return a sample of the asteroid to Earth. But landing on Bennu, was no piece of of gravity! Am I right?
Bennu: Bennu is a primordial artifact preserved in the vacuum of space, orbiting around planets and moons and asteroids and comets. Because it is so old, Bennu could be made of material containing s
ubstances that were present when life first formed on Earth!
"Goddard provides overall mission management, systems engineering and the safety and mission assurance for OSIRIS-REx. Dante Lauretta of the University of Arizona, Tucson, is the principal investigator, and the University of Arizona also leads the science team and the mission’s science observation planning and data processing.
Lockheed Martin Space in Denver built the spacecraft and is providing flight operations. Goddard and KinetX Aerospace are responsible for navigating the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. OSIRIS-REx is the third mission in NASA’s New Frontiers Program, which is managed by NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, for the agency’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington."
