NASA’s Asteroid Bennu Sample Reveals Mix of Life’s Ingredients

 Hey, Space Placers!

A scientist in a white coat, mask, hair net, and purple gloves holds up a clear vial with a black substance inside near the camera.

In this video frame, Jason Dworkin holds up a vial that contains part of the sample from asteroid Bennu delivered to Earth by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and Security – Regolith Explorer) mission in 2023. Dworkin is the mission’s project scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
