Arriving at Asteroid Bennu
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 12. 2018
- Asteroids are the leftover building blocks of the solar system, remnants from the dawn of planet formation that may have delivered organics and water to early Earth, and which could hold clues to the origins of life. Now, a NASA mission called OSIRIS-REx has arrived at near-Earth asteroid Bennu. It will map and study the tiny world in great detail, eventually returning a piece of Bennu to Earth in 2023.
The discoveries of OSIRIS-REx will shed light on our solar system's ancient history, and help pave the way for future exploration of other small bodies. In this short documentary, members of the OSIRIS-REx team capture the excitement of arriving at Bennu and look forward to the discoveries ahead.

Awesomeness. Looking forward to the updates. Exciting times.
Also would like to congratulate the makers of this video on the quality: in-depth, clear and captivating.
It's always amazing and very satisfying to see what humans are capable of being smart! :-)
What did you see ?
@@MisfitRecords I saw the mission focusing on an interesting target and the principles by which this robot is maneuvering preprogrammed to avoid destruction by space debris and a practical automated way to bring material from a rock somewhere in the solar system back to planet earth. The container reentrying the atmosphere is smart and I hope the findings will be worth the effort. Or it is a first and more will follow... ( the japanese Hayabusa mission ignored because of the much greater directness in taking samples on board) ...the stringent logic of science is already a pure delight in contrast to less curious and contributing enterprises where the only purpose seems to be getting attention or getting rich for the sake of getting rich. We might be much better off in general if science and space exploration were more inspiring for more people than redundant pseudo-information about who was seen doing shopping with another person whose contribution to the growth of knowledge and society is nothing except boring gossip ;-)
there is still reason for optimism!
NASA always nails those acronyms

Oh. You're new.
Marvellous work thus far..
We love your work. Thank you and Well done. What an Amazing team and result. :) Keep going cant wait for 2020 and 2023.
Thank you for this video!!!
*Future is now!*
I bet that makes one hell of an espresso.
😂😂😂😂😂 NPC SPOTTED
Got my attention
The beginning of asteroid mining
back yard cat pop outer space territorial claiming.
@@benjayflorencio7240 you predicted pop cat. Mad lad.
I love his confidence when he says "I will be there when we open the capsule" . just wow👌
spectacularism witnessed :D...great feat scientists
Great work NASA
Can't wait for 2023
I, too, thought of Michael Crichton's Project Scoop from the Andromeda Strain...
😃😯 wow. That is amazing! Have they gotten samples of other planet minerals?
¡Fantástico!.
4k !!!!! I love 4k!! Watching it from my 31" 4k monitor.
NASA,,, I all ways love you,,,, (Banu story)
What is that round thing in the display?
Neat.
Great video! Should have told us the diameter of bennu, we got little sense of scale.
I agree, it would have been nice to have been told the size of Bennu.
According to Wikipedia it's about 525 m in diameter.
I suggest checking out the Wikipedia page on the asteroid. It looks like it's being updated as new information is being gathered.
It's over 200m they said that in a different video
Simple amazing
"I'll be there on site"......what an insanely lucky man. In one to two hundred years when they are talking about how asteroid mining started, This is it.
Great video, and amazing music. Go NASA Go!
Just wanted to know how big is the asteroid and how much damage it can cause if it hit the earth,. is there anything that scientists built to prevent the asteroid from hitting the earth,? I really want to know.
OSIRIS-REX =
Observe, Son: I Rule... In Space! Ready for an EXample? (dips down, collects asteroid sample)
that looks like the capsule from The Andromeda Strain. Better stock up on Squeeze
Merci
Bennu is older than life on earth
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nic
What if the sample mechanism only gets small dust particles???
I think you can still chemically analyze them. I'm guessing the mechanism is weighted or something, so they'll know when they have enough. I'm guessing it doesn't matter if it's coarse or fine.
Then that would still be a good sample.
You have to remember that a lot of asteroids are; in a word, soft.
Their low gravity and low mass makes it so that you won't really find compacted materials.
The surface of Bennu may be as soft as fresh snow.
@@__-cx6lg No, as I understand it, a sample will taken and its mass determined by spinning the probe and measuring the weight exerted by the centrifugal force. If it is less than sixty grams, another sample collection will be performed...
@@FLScrabbler Cool!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Very interesting!
GCAR: Go, Collect And Return!
Beautiful.
It's a big assed rock pile y'all
Get a bucket full and drag it back to the barn.
I'll keep the beer cold
Frankly can’ t understand why no mention of the sizes of Bennu, nor can understand why in another video regarding the successful approach of this instrument to the asteroid, the entire command room ( about 100 people) abandon all together all their computers as to celebrate the success , then I wonder what all of them were doing up then: just looking at their monitors?
Anyone, who have done same with orbit change through help by an another planet in KSP OF COURSE?:D
NASA
Asteroids could be the foundation of a New Planets forming in orbit.
Yo this minecraft update is lit
How can people dislike this video?
Flat brainers
I want to how they found out that it is one of the oldest objects in solar system.
Most objects in our solar system are around the same age but there's some objects that are from collisions after the planets formed. I'm not sure how they tell the difference but this must be one of the pieces that was orbiting around at the same time the planets formed and just happened to survive all this time without a collision.
This object probably came from the Kuiper belt and was pulled in by interactions with other objects in that area. The gas giants of our solar system act like vacuum cleaners sucking up and absorbing all these objects and this one is a survivor that has entered our area of the solar system.
@@OneNationUnderGod. thanks.
I would rather they open it in a sealed room, away from any chances of contaminating the earth with a new superbug. And if you find a 20 dollar bill, it’s mine.
I'm sure that's the plan.
Liked for the $20.
It can be as it consists of harmful materials or hazardous staffs.
Did you know, NASA has an Office of Planetary Protection? planetaryprotection.nasa.gov/about
専門用語の英語が多くてほとんど理解出来ません。
I can not understand mostly English with a lot of technical terms.

What did you not understand?
smash and grab.
I saw the early earth
Watch the movie " Alive".
Probably already been addressed but your team is taking every precaution with regard to biologic or Chemical dangers?
explain? they're taking this probe to a lump of rock and dust in space and bringing a sample back to Earth. At which point in mission are you telling them to be careful, sample acquisition (look out for Zetans) or return voyage with the delicate samples? because I'm sure the return capsule is made to survive reentry and contain the sample while retaining much of the native location's properties... wait, I wonder too if it would be best to keep the sample in a low-gravity situation, but then again, whichever space rocks brought life to our home smashed them pretty good and they survived, so I guess for the sake of scientific analysis it doesn't matter a whole bunch if the potentially live organisms on the rock survive or don't, their corpses are all that is needed for the goal of this mission.
But we don't know the biological composition, if any, that could be attached to the samples. It is also quite reckless to open the sampling container in the middle of a desert for a PR stunt, the samples can become tainted by Earth's gases. It would be safer to deliver the sample to the ISS first as a remote operating infection control stage, like the US preclearance to "aliens from foreign nations"
They will open it in a clean room, I'm sure.
There's not much (zero) risk to Earth. Asteroid stuff falls here every minute, since 4 billion years ago. The risk is contaminating the samples with Earth stuff.
Just an offhand observation. Are there that many women involved in these fields or is NASA putting them all forward to give that impression?
When the regolith is returned, it will have similar composition to either earth or mars and another collision will have to be added to the 4.5 billion year time line that's unaccounted for, just a prediction.
Im ok with it landing in utah first
Let the bennu strike on my mother-in law head
We should mine on that asteroid. Before it hits earth in 2199...
- Sample lands on Earth.
- Scientist carrying it trips and drops asteroid rocks into puddle.
- Most expensive dust on Earth lost.
lol

Okay guys, git'r'done! Next step after Bennu is visit an M-type asteroid, come back with 45 kilos of palladium, and pay for the mission. You've got this.
Yeah, bring back aliens, Great work NASA. (Just joking :P)
deep inpact that never happened
but they don't tell you the whole true, nasa has discovered water on that asteroid and the water they found samples of allien microorganism, now nasa is researching and developing an allien spieces that is going to replace us all some day in the future
*heeeEEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEELP*
incoming FlatEarther trolls
Flat, hollow Bennu.
Too late
The moon is flat
I really hate the debate over life's evolution and the planet having to have exactly the right situation... You can't put life's evolution first in that equation, nor can you equate their connection in that sequence. The situation is appropriate for life, then life evolved..... Detaching from that sequence prevents you from realizing Earth is NOT special, that all mass has potential for life within the electromagnetic SCALE of that body!. Our scale and size(human centricity) Is not the largest or smallest but it is also NOT the middle!
I'm the frist man who has like....
If only we were better this would matter.
Asteroids were electrically “machined” off planets. Humans have recorded this in our legends that refer to the Thunderbolts of the Gods. That’s why asteroids have the same complex elements as planets.
How did you come by this "special knowledge" Brandon Jones??
Hahaha haha
They don't have the same elemental composition as Earth.
If the asteroids had been blasted off of the Earth's surface, there would be no surviving witnesses. I wouldn't bet on surviving bacteria.
If the asteroids came from Earth, what are they doing in the asteroid belt?
Twirlip Of The Mists I did not say Earth- or just Earth. Valles Marineris is a great example of where some of the material could be from.
We even have a legend about Mars receiving a mighty scar by a thunderbolt from Venus. It’s odd that various civilizations across the globe share this same story if it’s complete fiction.
Ancel Rick a little common sense and a lot of reading.
Fact: where there’s magnetism there is electricity.
All of the bodies in space are electrically charged. They repel and attract one another through ionic exchanges. Ionic changes are the solar winds.
To believe that two or more charged bodies could have possibly had a discharge between them is not absurd. Especially when we have multiple written accounts of these exchanges from around the globe.
FAKE
I was gonna do this, but NASA ripped off my idea
