The sample-return capsule from University of Arizona-led OSIRIS-REx mission rests in the Utah desert near its main parachute, shortly after touching down on Sept. 24.

NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission was planned decades ago. In 2016, a spacecraft launched. In 2018, it arrived at Bennu, a near-Earth asteroid as wide as the Sears Tower is tall.

As the destination for the OSIRIS-REx asteroid retrieval mission, additional X-band radiometric and optical navigation tracking data added even more trajectory precision.

An international team of scientists put the idea to the test thanks to mountains of data regarding OSIRIS-REx’s recent asteroid target Bennu.

A sample from the asteroid Bennu, the subject of the 2016 OSIRIS-REx mission, and a “near-Earth asteroid,” has arrived at the Field Museum.
