orex

The OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security, Regolith Explorer) mission is designed to return a sample of material from near-Earth carbonaceous asteroid Bennu. OSIRIS-REx launched in September 2016 and will carry out Bennu orbit operations from December 2018 through around March 2021.  It will sample the asteroid in July 2020 and return the sample to Earth in September 2023. Along with returning a sample, it will map the asteroid and measure non-gravitational forces on the orbit.
