Current status: pondering the meaning of life (and robotic circuitry) while cruising toward
#asteroid Bennu. 474 million kilometers (294 million miles) to go... More on my whereabouts: http://bit.ly/WhereIsOREX pic.twitter.com/88iZIHAvKY -
We really do deserve an asteroid. I know it’s my fault for reading it and the asteroid probably needs to hit me first but give me a break

Despite their size, asteroids can be dangerous. Many have hit Earth in the past, and more will crash into our planet in the future. That's one reason scientists study asteroids.

Pioneer Astronautics’ CAVOR system. Carbonaceous
#asteroid material goes in. Out comes CO2, Ch4, H20, H2, and CO, and bare rock without volatiles. The CHO gases can them be processed to make fuel, oxygen, or other useful things.#Space#Sciencepic.twitter.com/fcjI4k7xZv -
An
#asteroid (#2018LA) hit the Earth. It entered into the atmosphere on Saturday night and disintegrated into a huge "fireball" over the Botswana sky (Africa). The small size, estimated between 3 and 5 meters in diameter, did not create fears for an impact.pic.twitter.com/nJ5biV4o3l -
If you're not following this, it is awesome. High drama involving a
#robot ship about to land on an#asteroid a gajillion miles away to mine a sample. Nobody knew the shape or rotation until arrival, so the flight plan for landing approach is done on the fly. Amazing stuff! https://twitter.com/haya2e_jaxa/status/1006047981550764032 … -
We did a highly successful experiment at Pioneer Astronautics yesterday, demonstrating our Carbonaceous Asteroid Volatile Organics Recovery (CAVOR) system. The 4 liter reactor unit was able to process carbonaceous
