TL;DR Summary
NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission has revealed the remaining sample of asteroid Bennu in high-resolution detail after overcoming challenges with the canister. The team successfully removed the final fasteners on January 10, allowing access to the sample. The next steps involve transferring the sample into trays for analysis and storage at NASA's Johnson Space Center. With over 70 grams already collected, the team has surpassed their goal and anticipates releasing a catalog of all Bennu samples later this year.
