Mission’s senior scientist, Dante Lauretta of the University of Arizonathe operation said Tuesday, 200 million miles away, was collecting far more material than expected for return to Earth – in hundreds of grams.

Lauretta said there is nothing air traffic controllers can do to remove the obstacles and keep more pieces of Bennu from escaping than getting the samples into their return capsule as quickly as possible. Agencies
