Unveiling Secrets of Our Solar System
The Workshop on Bennu and Ryugu: Samples from the Early Solar System brings together leading scientists to discuss groundbreaking findings from two remarkable asteroids. Bennu and Ryugu are primitive bodies that hold clues about the formation and evolution of our solar system. Experts analyze these asteroid samples to deepen our understanding of cosmic history and planetary development.
Why Bennu and Ryugu Matter
These workshops highlight how asteroid samples contain organic molecules, water-bearing minerals, and other essential building blocks for life. By studying the composition and structure of these samples, researchers can trace the origins of our solar system’s materials. The collaboration between international space missions, such as NASA’s OSIRIS-REx (Bennu) and JAXA’s Hayabusa2 (Ryugu), ensures a comprehensive approach to space science.
