OSIRIS-REx is coming home - Livestream

On September 24, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft will complete its 7-year journey to the primitive asteroid Bennu, returning to Earth with a substantial sample of surface material. Why are these asteroids important? What were the challenges in the mission design? Why did the science team have an unusual role in the operational aspects of the mission? Did our assumptions about what we would find at Bennu pan out or was it a total surprise? What will happen with the sample? Ed Beshore, former Deputy Principal Investigator of the mission will discuss these and other questions.
