Black dust and debris were found by NASA scientists and engineers inside the canister containing the first astroid sample retrieved from deep space in American history.
Bennu could collide with Earth in the late 2100s.
Curation experts will perform an intricate disassembly of the Touch and Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism to access the sample inside at the new laboratory designed specifically for the OSIRIS-REx mission, according to NASA. "When the TAGSAM is separated from the canister, it will be inserted in a sealed transfer container to preserve a nitrogen environment for up to about two hours," NASA wrote. The transfer canister will buy time for the TAGSAM to be placed into a"glovebox," which allows scientists and engineers to work with the equipment and sample without contamination.
