The First Sample of Extraterrestrial Rocks Since Apollo Missions?
This is going to be the first actual sample of extraterrestrial rocks since Apollo missions. We have brought back things like star dust from previous missions that have gone out into space and collected pieces. These are the first samples that are being specifically returned to look for signs of ancient life. It's a transformative moment, potentially, because if life is out there, then we instantaneously transform not just our solar system, but all the stars that we see into a biological universe.
