On October 20, 2020, NASA\u2019s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft briefly touched down on Bennu and collected a sample for return to Earth. During this \u201cTAG event,\u201d the spacecraft\u2019s arm sank far deeper into the asteroid than expected, confirming that Bennu\u2019s surface is incredibly weak. Now, scientists have used data from OSIRIS-REx to revisit the TAG event and better understand how Bennu\u2019s loose upper layers are held together. <\/p>\n<p>Credit: NASA\u2019s Goddard Space Flight Center\/CI Lab\/SVS\/Dan Gallagher (KBRwyle): Producer\/Jonathan North (KBRwyle): Lead Animator\/Kel Elkins (USRA): Lead Data Visualizer\/Alexander Bodnar (AIMM): Animator\/Adriana Manrique Gutierrez (KBRwyle): Animator\/Walt Feimer (KBRwyle): Animator\/Lisa Poje (Freelance): Animator\/Dan Gallagher (KBRwyle): Narrator\/Dante Lauretta (The University of Arizona): Lead Scientist\/Kevin Walsh (SwRI): Scientist\/Ronald Ballouz (JHUAPL): Scientist\/Olivier Barnouin (JHUAPL): Scientist\/Rani Gran (NASA\/GSFC): Public Affairs Officer\/Nancy Neal-Jones (NASA\/GSFC): Public Affairs Officer\/James Tralie (ADNET): Support\/Ernie Wright (USRA): Support\/Aaron E.
