OSIRIS-REx Slings Orbital Web Around Asteroid to Capture Sample - 4K
That sounds like an exciting mission! OSIRIS-REx is a NASA spacecraft that was launched in 2016 with the objective of studying the asteroid Bennu and collecting a sample to bring back to Earth. The spacecraft arrived at Bennu in 2018 and has been studying the asteroid ever since.
To capture a sample, OSIRIS-REx used a technique called the Touch-and-Go (TAG) maneuver. The spacecraft approached the asteroid's surface and extended a robotic arm called the Touch-And-Go Sample Acquisition Mechanism (TAGSAM). The TAGSAM is equipped with a sampler head that used nitrogen gas to stir up and capture regolith (loose rocks and dust) from the asteroid's surface.
However, I'm not sure what you mean by "slings orbital web." Could you please provide more information or clarify your question?
