A top-down view of the OSIRIS-REx Touch-and-Go-Sample-Acquisition-Mechanism (TAGSAM) head with the lid removed, revealing the remainder of
the asteroid sample inside
Erika Blumenfeld, creative lead for the Advanced Imaging and Visualization of Astromaterials (AIVA) and Joe Aebersold, project management
lead, captured this picture using manual high-resolution precision photography and a semi-automated focus stacking procedure
The result is an image that can be zoomed in on to show extreme detail of the sample
The remaining sample material includes dust and rocks up to about .4 in (one cm) in size.Image Credit: NASA/Erika Blumenfeld - Joseph
