Back from Bennu
After a journey from asteroid Bennu, the OSIRIS-REx sample return capsule safely landed in the Utah desert. The capsule, measuring 31 inches wide, shows charring from its fiery descent through Earth's atmosphere. It delivered precious samples collected from Bennu, which will provide scientists with new insights into the early solar system. The successful return marks a significant achievement in asteroid research.
