Finally here! Two years after #nasa 's #OSIRIS-REx mission returned samples of #asteroid #bennu to Earth, we have now received 319 mg to study in our labs. We are hoping to determine Bennu’s isotopic composition and learn more about its “birthplace” in the Solar System.

Have you ever looked at clouds or water and tried to understand the complex system of swirls and ribbons?

To take it a step further: Jupiter, the largest planet in our solar system, and its moons still pose puzzles of this kind, which we hope to unravel […]
