Instagram: Bennu's Journey

Released on November 18, 2014

Born from the rubble of a violent collision, hurled through space for millions of years, Asteroid Bennu has had a tough life in a rough neighborhood - the early solar system. Bennu's Journey shows what is known and what remains mysterious about the evolution of Bennu and the planets. By retrieving a sample of Bennu, OSIRIS-REx will teach us more about the raw ingredients of the solar system and our own origins.

Below is a series of 15-second videos that can be found on NASA Goddard's Instagram and Flickr.
