"Queen Guitarist Saves NASA's Asteroid Mission from Disaster"

Queen guitarist Brian May played a crucial role in NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission to the asteroid Bennu. May created 3D images of the asteroid's surface, helping scientists identify safe landing spots for the spacecraft. Despite encountering unexpected challenges, OSIRIS-REx successfully landed on Bennu and collected a 2-ounce sample of the asteroid's surface. The sample could potentially contain extraterrestrial precursors to life on Earth. May's involvement highlights the importance of understanding asteroids, as they may hold the key to understanding the origins of life.
