    Data from OSIRIS-REx reveals loose surface of asteroid Bennu and “early aging” of asteroids

    by Haygen Warren July 26, 2022
    written by Haygen Warren

    Recently analyzed data from an asteroid surface-sample collection performed by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission has revealed that asteroid 101955 Bennu’s surface regolith is much looser than previously thought. Had OSIRIS-REx not fired its thrusters to back away from Bennu after collecting its sample, the spacecraft likely would’ve sunk straight into Bennu’s surface.

    What’s more, additional data from OSIRIS-REx’s sample collection revealed that surface regeneration occurs much quicker on asteroids than on Earth.
