Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Captured on Oct. 20 during the OSIRIS-REx mission's Touch-And-Go (TAG) sample collection event, this series of 16 images shows the SamCam imager's field of view as the NASA spacecraft backs away from asteroid Bennu's surface after touching down. The sampling event brought the spacecraft all the way down to sample site Nightingale, and the team on Earth received confirmation of successful touchdown at 22:08 UTC. Preliminary data show the sampling head touched Bennu's surface for approximately 6 seconds, after which the spacecraft performed a back-away burn. |
