LON ANGELES, Oct. 12 (Xinhua) — A sample image of an object from the asteroid Bennu in the middle right corner of the sampler. OSIRIS-Rex on Wednesday (Oct. 11) NASA said that preliminary studies of a sample of the 4.5 billion year old asteroid Bennu that NASA collected from space and bring it back to earth revealed the high carbon and water content in the samples. Both of these elements may indicate that the foundations of life on Earth may be found in these rocks. (Image recorded on 11 Oct. 2023) Related news:
