NASA FINALLY RIPS LID OFF STUBBORN ASTEROID SAMPLE

NASA’s team has finally managed to pry off the last two stuck fasteners on the container that holds some incredibly valuable stuff: materials the agency’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft sampled from asteroid Bennu, over 100 million miles away.

The samples, tucked inside a special landing capsule, were dropped off in the Utah desert in September. The treasure was quickly delivered to a special facility at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, where scientists have been trying to access the loot ever since.
