Bennu and Vesta

Very cool new paper on the discovery of chunks of asteroid Vesta on asteroid Bennu.

Our recent paper showed that pieces of carbonaceous-chondrite-like micrometeoroids bombarded Vesta’s regolith.

We should look through the carbonaceous chondrite multi-gigapixel BSE mosaics for clasts of HED-like material.
