They calculated that there is a very small chance — about 1-in-2700, or 0.037% to be exact — that asteroid Bennu, which is roughly the size of the Empire State Building, could collide with our ...
Nearly 60 years later, NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission returned from space with a sample of an asteroid named Bennu, similar to the one that rained rocks over Revelstoke. Our research team has ...
The asteroid Bennu has been at the centre of scientific discussions recently, especially after researchers analysed surface samples collected by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission. While much of the ...
A sample of dust and rocks from an asteroid just took us closer to an answer. Collected from Bennu, a space rock shaped like a spinning top, as it soared by Earth roughly five years ago, the samples ...
The study "Climatic and ecological responses to Bennu-type asteroid collisions" was published in the journal Science Advances on Feb. 5.
