In October 2020, a small spacecraft briefly touched down on an asteroid to snag a piece of it to bringto Earth. Almost two years later, scientists have learned that if the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft had extended its stay even a tiny bit longer, it would have sunk right into the asteroid. That’s because asteroid Bennu is nothing like scientists had predicted. Rather than being a solid, flying rock, Bennu is actually made up of small, pebble-like particles that are not strongly bound together, creating lots of space on its…

Nearly two years ago, NASA made history when its OSIRIS-REx spacecraft briefly to collect a regolith sample from the surface of the asteroid. While the mission won’t return to Earth , NASA shared new information about the celestial body. In an published this week (via ), the agency revealed OSIRIS-REx would have sunk into Bennu had the spacecraft not immediately fired its thrusters after touching the asteroid's surface. "It turns out that the particles making up Bennu’s exterior are so loosely packed and lightly bound…

While scientists believed that asteroid Bennu had a smooth and plain surface, they were recently astonished to learn the true nature of its exterior. An analysis of the data gathered by NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft revealed that Bennu's surface consists of loosely packed particles that resemble a pit filled with plastic balls.The latest revelation was made after OSIRIS-REx collected samples from the asteroid in October 2020 and sent back close-up and detailed pictures of Bennu's surface to Earth. “What we saw was a huge…

Summer nights can get a little chilly, but you can extend the time you spend outdoors well into fall by getting a fire pit. Many of the best fire pits are currently discounted thanks to Memorial Day Weekend sales, which means now is the best time to pick one up. Newer fire pits are designed to mitigate the amount of smoke they produce by changing the trajectory of their airflow through proper ventilation. Better still, contemporary fire pits don’t require you to dig a hole or set up barriers, they can be set up on any…

Stonehenge has been intensively studied for centuries. Yet even now, we are still discovering new aspects of the famous site.An archaeological 'biopsy' of the surrounding landscape has revealed a hidden network of large pits encircling the stone structure.  The study is the first extensive electromagnetic induction survey of the region, and it has helped archaeologists uncover hundreds of large pits, each over 2.4 meters (7.8 ft) wide. Some of these were most certainly made by human hands thousands of years ago.What…
