Put on your red/blue glasses and float next to Asteroid Bennu. Shaped like a spinning toy top with boulders littering its rough surface, the tiny Solar System world is about one Empire State Building (less than 500 meters) across.
Frames used to construct this 3D anaglyph were taken by PolyCam on the OSIRIS-REx Spacecraft on December 3, 2018 from a distance of about 80 kilometers.
With a sample from the asteroid’s rocky surface on board, OSIRIS-REx departed Bennu’s vicinity in May of 2021 and is now enroute to planet Earth. The robotic spacecraft is scheduled to return the sample to Earth this September.
