A top-down view of the OSIRIS-REx Touch-and-Go-Sample-Acquisition-Mechanism (TAGSAM) head with the lid removed, revealing the remainder of the asteroid sample inside.
Erika Blumenfeld, creative lead for the Advanced Imaging and Visualization of Astromaterials (AIVA) and Joe Aebersold, project management lead, captured this picture using manual high-resolution precision photography and a semi-automated focus stacking procedure.
The result is an image that can be zoomed in on to show extreme detail of the sample.
The remaining sample material includes dust and rocks up to about .4 in (one cm) in size.Image Credit: NASA/Erika Blumenfeld - Joseph AebersoldRead More.
