Les voilà ! Les fameux grains collectés par la sonde OSIRIS-REx 🇺🇲 dont l'accès dans la capsule était rendu complexe par des vis récalcitrantes.
Le plus gros grain fait 1 cm. Notez la diversité de morphologie, de texture et de brillance. De la science à venir ! 🔬

The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft's 7-year journey #ToBennuAndBack started #OTD in 2016!
The first U.S. mission to sample an asteroid, on September 24 we will witness the thrilling finale of OSIRIS-REx's mission as the sample is returned to Earth!
After 7 years, the mission of OSIRIS-REx - to return the sample it collected from the asteroid Bennu to Earth - will conclude in the Utah desert on September 24th, 2023 at 11am EDT.
Until then, here's NASA's video about it:
