I just can't resist sending this hot-off-the-press link to asteroid Bennu! It could be related to meteorites in our collections... or not. See this hot-off-the-press link to asteroid Bennu at 100 pixels taken by NASA?s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft on Oct. 29, 2018 from a distance of about 205 miles (330 km): https://www.asteroidmission.org/20181029t1019ut_bennu/ I am sure you will agree that it is a bold, beautiful and interesting place already!
