This “super-resolution” view of the asteroid Bennu was created using eight images obtained by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft on Oct. 29 from about 205 miles away.

A computer-generated image of the OSIRIS-REx probe collecting a sample from the surface of the asteroid Bennu. The spacecraft is due to return to Earth with the sample in 2023.

One proposed way of examining if such a force could exist is by closely monitoring asteroid trajectories, and few near-Earth ...

This undated image made available by NASA shows the asteroid Bennu from the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft. ... "The likelihood that a Bennu-sized asteroid will strike Earth is quite small at 0.037 percent.

The radar images taken during its fly-by have allowed astronomers to distinguish never-before-seen characteristics of the asteroid. The images, captured at a resolution of 250 feet (75 meters) per ...

Asteroid Bennu is much stranger than researchers previously thought. When the OSIRIS-REx probe arrived at asteroid Bennu, it found a body that looked and behaved quite differently from what ...

NASA scientists have predicted there is a chance that a massive asteroid they have been tracking could smash into Earth in the year 2182, potentially devastating an area the size of Texas. Bennu ...

In October 2020, NASA’s OSRISIS-REx spacecraft made history by touching down on the asteroid Bennu and grabbing a sample of rock and debris. New analysis of this encounter has revealed the probe ...

NASA’s OSIRIS-REx asteroid probe has spotted the asteroid Bennu flinging pieces of its own surface into space. These “particle ejection events” happen all the time, … ...

Scientists said the footage showing the OSIRIS-REx space mission making "a good mess" on the asteroid Bennu, more than 200 million miles away, is a clear sign of success.

May and his colleague Claudia Manzoni melded multiple images of Bennu taken at slightly different angles to transform the asteroid into an eye-popping 3D object.
