Analysis of samples brought back to Earth from the asteroid Bennu reveal that it has a bizarre chemical make-up and is ...

Scientists have simulated what would happen if asteroid Bennu, a 500-meter-wide space rock, were to collide with Earth in September 2182. The results paint a grim picture—global climate collapse ...

New simulations reveal that the climate, atmospheric chemistry and even global photosynthesis would be dramatically disrupted by an asteroid collision ...

Bennu’s potential collision with Earth is a remote but unsettling possibility, according to a new study. Bennu is about 500 metres wide—taller than the Empire State Building and as wide as ...

Bennu, one of the largest asteroids, has been the subject of research and simulations in the event of an impact with our planet. Bennu is 500 meters wide and astronomers have predicted a one in ...

The asteroid Bennu has been at the centre of scientific discussions recently, especially after researchers analysed surface samples collected by NASA’s OSIRIS-REx mission. While much of the ...

Bennu, an asteroid the size of the Empire State Building, has a 1-in-2700 chance of hitting Earth in 2182. 'Fuel-free space travel': NASA engineer claims discovery that defies physics 'Galactic ...

The asteroid Bennu is a celestial body with an average diameter of about 560 meters that was discovered in 1999. It is said that it will approach Earth many times over the course of about 200 ...

NASA spacecraft touched down on the rugged surface of the Bennu asteroid on Tuesday, grabbing a sample of rocks dating back to the birth of our solar system to bring home. The minivan-sized OSIRIS ...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Asteroid samples fetched by NASA hold not only the pristine building blocks for life but also the salty remains of an ancient water world, scientists reported Wednesday.
