Asteroid samples refer to the collection and analysis of material taken from asteroids, small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun. Studying these samples can provide valuable insights into the formation and evolution of the Solar System, as well as help scientists understand the potential resources that asteroids may hold for future space exploration missions. These samples are typically collected through robotic spacecraft missions, such as the Japanese spacecraft Hayabusa and Hayabusa2, and the NASA spacecraft OSIRIS-REx. Analysis of asteroid samples can help scientists learn more about the composition, structure, and history of these intriguing celestial bodies.
