OSIRIS-REX Slings Orbital Web Around Asteroid to Capture Sample | 4K

101955 Bennu is one of Earth's closest planetary neighbors - an asteroid roughly the height of a skyscraper, and since late 2018, the place that NASA's OSIRIS-REX mission has called home. When OSIRIS-REX arrived on Dec. 3, 2018, it began wrapping Bennu in a complex web of observations. OSIRIS- REx departs Bennu on May 10, 2021, on a return voyage to Earth, bringing with it over 60 grams of sample collected from the asteroid. This narrated video presents the mission's complete trajectory during its time at Bennu.
