I would argue that the 70 grams is even more important for us to preserve. The reason why is because we can use the outside material as a test against the inside material. This will tell us if the reentry process and exposure to our atmosphere changed the materials and can even provide a test to see if the inside materials ever do become contaminated.

Asteroids have different colours, but some of them are grey in colour because the regolith they are made from is been bleached by the solar winds, some are red, look at Pluto for example, that is carbohydrates that are cooked by the sun! Plus the majority of the high resolution of cameras are black and white, it cost less and a smaller sensor to have a sharp detail of an object without colour than having a colour and larger sensor and cost. Remember more mass equal more cost and more change of failure!

I'm a Meteorologist not an Astronomer, but personally I think the evidence is coming together that in the early Solar System a planet roughly 20% larger than Earth resided at around the median orbital distance of Mars, and perhaps Mars was a moon of said planet (or possibly binary planets?). I think as Jupiter migrated inward, this planet took an impact which obliterated it and pushed Mars into its eccentric orbit, leaving chunks of this former planet throughout the Asteroid Belt. Now we're uncovering pieces of the puzzle, with each new asteroid we study.

What type of clay minerals were found? Typically you refer to a parent material, rock that weathers and forms minerals through hydrolysis when discussing clays. 2:1 and 1:1 clays are a way to simplify their mineralogy depending on their matrix of Si Al octahedrals or Si Al tetrahedrals. 2:1s are typically sticky montmorillonite and smectite are examples. 1:1s are non sticky kaolinite is an example. 2:1s are sometimes called cohesive, or expansive by Civil Engineers, but Soil Scientist typically go into more detail. We need to know more about the clay minerology.

Got to admit, I hate the continual depiction of ‘asteroids’ slamming together so hard that they pulverize each other. Makes you wonder where all those contact binaries come from. Or big asteroids. Don’t they have to grow, as in collide slowly enough to stick together sufficiently where their tiny gravity pulls them together. And this goes for planet building. If every interaction is at local escape velocity or higher, planets wouldn’t form either. Maybe someday someone will come up with a planet formation theory I can actually believe. Maybe they’ll hints of that found in the material being discussed.

So, Bennu wasn't as dangerous as Aphophis until we poked a hole in it and stole some of it. Now we want to go poke Aphophis to see if there's a pattern. Good plan. OK, I do know that isn't what happened. But it would be kind of funny/scary if it had.

Wouldn’t those elements have vaporized/liquified and fused after condensing? The animation showing the theoretical formation of Moon suggests there would be a lot of molten mass in that sort of impact.

The Apophis asteroid is actually what Kars looks like now.... a shame, he almost made it back! ;]

The early universe was at liquid water temperature for a few million years. It's probably not unusual.

I see the Vatican and the Institute of Science and Spirituality have samples. Mike and I are in the building trade, so we'll take a contaminated sample. Mike's into space and always keeps his hard hat spotless!

Bennu is a near-Earth object, right? What are the odds that it was formed of/ejecta from early Earth collisions?

Plot twist: It's actually a chunk of Earth that got violently ejected from the mantle in some cataclysmic asteroid strike far in the past.
