The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft sampled from the surface of the Benue asteroid.

On October 20, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft touched the surface of the Benue asteroid, the NASA team on Earth confirmed a successful touchdown at 6:08 pm EDT, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft touched the asteroid for 6 seconds, the OSIRIS-REx mission. Captured on October 20, during the KT Touch-and-Go (TAG) sample collection program, this series of 82 images depict the field of the SAMCAGER imager as NASA's spacecraft approaches, and on the surface of the asteroid Bennu Touches down. This is the first spacecraft that has touched an asteroid. The mission aims to sample dust and pebbles from the surface of the Benue asteroid, and return to Earth.

OSIRIS-REx project manager Rich Burns states, "We will use a combination of data from TAG and post-TAG images and mass measurements to assess our confidence that we have sampled at least 60 grams If OSIRIS-REx spacecraft has collected 60 grams of sample, we will decide to prepare the sample on 30 October.

As we know, the Bennu is asteroid, shaped like a nut, the researchers believe that it is about 40 million years old. Researchers say that the Bennu asteroid was taking shape billions of years ago, so during that time it was breaking materials that could have helped to seed life on Earth. Researchers believe that this asteroid may contain many types of minerals, so Nasa Benue wanted a sample of the asteroid to know how life began on Earth?

OSIRIS-REx was launched on September 8, 2016 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, it reached the orbit of the Binu asteroid on December 3, 2018, and began orbiting the asteroid for the first time on December 31, 2018. On 20 October 2020, it touched the surface of the Beanu asteroid, sampling from the Beanu asteroid on September 24, 2023, when it parachuted the SRC into the URA's western desert, where scientists would be waiting to collect it.

In the triple-star system, KOI-5Ab is seen orbiting the primary star...

KOI-5Ab continues to be a topic of discussion for researchers, as koi-5Ab has been seen orbiting the primary Star, confirming it has also been announced. koi-5ab revolves around the primary star, it was thought to be a planet half the size of Saturn in a planetary system, and was the only other planet candidate to be detected by the KOI-5Ab mission. Kepler mission operations were initiated by NASA in 2009, by the end of spacecraft operations in 2018, the Kepler spacecraft had discovered 2,394 exoplanets, or planets orbiting stars beyond our sun, and about 2,366 exoplanets such There are also those, which are still to be confirmed. David Ciardi, chief scientist at NASA's Exoplanet Science Institute, says the KOI-5AB was abandoned, because it was complicated, and we had thousands of candidates, and we were learning something new every day from Kepler, so that the KOI Mostly forgot to -5. KOI-5Ab is part of the Triple Star system, where KOI-5 is a group of three st...

NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope will be closed.

NASA briefly informed that the Spitzer Space Telescope will be permanently discontinued on January 30, 2020. After about 16 years of discovering the universe in light energy. And by that time, the space shuttle has been working for more than 11 years beyond its prime mission, Spitzer examines the universe's various objects in infrared light. It was in 2003 through the rocket that the American Space Research Organization NASA entered the space and entered the orbit around the Earth. Spitzer rotates the sun on a path similar to that of the Earth but it runs a bit slower. Today it is about 158 million miles (254 million kilometers) away from our planet - more than 600 times the distance between Earth and Moon. The spacing of Spitzer's orbit curve means that when the spacecraft indicates its fixed antenna on the earth to download data or receive commands, its solar panels tend to lean away from the sun. During those periods, to operate the space shut...

SpaceX is launching its next dragon spacecraft.

SpaceX is preparing for its next mission, very soon Spacex will launch the Dragon Spacecraft with its Falcon 9 Rocket. SpaceX is the 18th commercial reproduction service mission, dragon spacecraft will be loaded with dozens of experiments made in space. Launch date: Sunday, July 21, 2019 at 7:35 pm International Space Station (ISS) us The National Laboratory SpaceX's dragon is giving a finalization to more than two dozen payloads for launch in a circular circular laboratory. Many of these payloads are aimed at improving human health on the earth, many of which are focused on drug development. In addition, a series of payloads from identified private sector partners will be launched on this mission. More than 40 student experiments and demonstrations have been included on the 18th Commercial Recepti Services Mission (CRS-18) of SpaceX. One part of ISS American National Laboratory's goal is to encourage and engage next generation scientists. ...
