A Glimpse at Asteroid Bennu

Solveig A. Irvine (OSIRIS-REx Mission Manager, NASA-MSFC)

Solveig will take us on a brief tour of the OSIRIS-REx Mission, from how the spacecraft was designed and operated, to the historic TAG (Touch And Go) sample collection event on Asteroid Bennu, how that sample was brought safely to Earth and finally, what we have learned thus far about Bennu and our understanding of how life evolved on Earth. Come join us to learn more about this and more with your favorite beer!
