Ceres” sample tank, black fragments were found. NASA said that researchers opened the sample canister returned by Osiris-Rex today and found “black dust and debris” on its avionics deck, but NASA did not specify the dust and debris. Whether it belongs to this asteroid. Scientists can’t wait to study the samples, which will require “precise disassembly” of the robotic arm that collected them. The spacecraft Osiris was launched in 2016, and four years later it collected regarding 250 grams of dust samples from the rocky surface of the asteroid Bennu. NASA said even this small number should “help us better understand the types of asteroids that may threaten Earth.” On the 24th, the Osiris sample recovery capsule passed through the Earth’s atmosphere and landed in the desert of Utah in the western United States, completing a journey of 6.21 billion kilometers. A press conference will be held on October 11 to show these samples to the public. Scientists believe that analyzing this asteroid will allow researchers to better understand the formation of the solar system and why the Earth is habitable. Most of the samples will be preserved for future research, regarding 1/4 will be immediately used for experiments, and a small number of samples will be transferred to mission partners Japan and Canada.
