1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,437 (music throughout) After imaging asteroid Bennu for the last time on April 7th, 2021, 2 00:00:04,437 --> 00:00:11,611 OSIRIS-REx fired its thrusters on May 10th on its 2 year journey to deliver asteroid samples to Earth. 3 00:00:11,611 --> 00:00:13,813 (Navigation Team Chief Pete Antreasian) The ADM burn has completed 4 00:00:13,813 --> 00:00:16,349 We had a nominal ADM burn, 5 00:00:16,349 --> 00:00:18,651 and we’re bringing our samples home! 6 00:00:18,651 --> 00:00:23,423 (applause) 7 00:00:23,423 --> 00:00:28,928 (narrator) This burn thrust the spacecraft away from the asteroid at 600 miles per hour. 8 00:00:28,928 --> 00:00:37,504 OSIRIS-REx will then orbit the Sun twice before reaching Earth on September 24th, 2023. 9 00:00:37,504 --> 00:00:41,508 It will send the capsule containing pieces of Bennu through Earth’s atmosphere 10 00:00:41,508 --> 00:00:45,445 to the Utah Test and Training Range, where it will be retrieved 11 00:00:45,445 --> 00:00:49,182 and taken to the curation facility at NASA’s Johnson Space Center. 12 00:00:49,182 --> 00:00:55,321 These samples will be distributed to labs around the world for analysis for generations to come.
