Asteroid Bennu is the most hazardous asteroid in the Solar System, and there is a possibility it could collide with Earth in 2192. In 2020 a NASA mission landed on the surface of Bennu and collected material from its surface for return to Earth in September 2023. Analysis of the material by scientific labs worldwide will help to answer questions such as: where did we come from? and what is our destiny in space? This book tells the story of asteroids in general and Bennu in particular, with stereo photos of the asteroid by Sir Brian May based on the imagery of the OSIRIS-REx mission. It is essential reading for all astronomers, whether amateur or professional, and will also be bought and collected by the thousands of fans of Sir Brians growing library of 3-D books.
