Went to the moon in 1969. Took a car up there and drove it around. 2024...cant get some screws loose. We're devolving.

Why the heck did they use Phillips-head screws on that thing? They are infamous for the tendency to strip out under torque! They should've used Torx-drive fasteners throughout; they are very hard to get stuck, and very easy to apply high torque to without stripping.

They used Torq-Set screws. They are used in the aerospace industrie and were developed for their greater torque transfer capabilities. Dont think NASA engineers dont know what they are doing. Its rather you who has no idea what he is talking about.

It's so easy to criticise isn't it, when you don't have all the facts, and NASA does have cost-constraints. The trick was to open the the container without getting even the tiniest sliver of bolt or container material dropping on the sample. That is why the greatest amount of care was taken. I dare say you will be totally miffed next time NASA has some problem and they don't call you.

"The sample contains abundant water and carbon which can shed light on the origin of life on earth" Those two components have nothing to do with life. Living organisms use them but it will not answer were life came from.

You don’t need to add music to EVERY video. It’s the information we want.

Very impressive that you share samples to be studied by scientists around the world of the precious material collected from the near-Earth asteroid Bennu.

Sample Not altered by radiation? That statement seems ridiculous.

Not going to 2nd guess rocket engineers, they know what they are doing. But I like torx (star) fasteners.

Congrats on getting it open! This is very exciting. Keep up the good work.

Two new words for you NASA impact wrench.

When do you think we will begin to hear about what scientists have discovered about the sample? I expect it will be some months.

This could produce some very productive information to scientists in time, and lead to something big over time. The key thing is, can we glean this information and put it to use before mankind's self destruction outpaces it's technological advances. At this time it does not look very good for humanity.

The video was confusing about the latest development, the opening of the main sample container. The video only showed sample that was outside of the container. Was the main container full as expected or not?

I keep thinking "Andromeda Strain."

Be careful there Job.

I get the very strong impression that NASA has never hired anyone with any knowledge of cars or experience working on them. They assume that rocket scientists can't learn from anyone else about anything.

“Stay tuned…” is so delightfully 20th century. How about “keep watching…” as a 21st century replacement?

Wow!

Has any thought been devoted to possibly meeting up with small asteroids and landing them in the Nevada or Utah desert in order to make use of their resources?

I turned off at the incorrect statement of "60 milligrams goal and 60 grams actually recovered" ive only seen a few things about this amazing mission to know that the goal was 60 grams and theyve actually recovered appropriately 160 grams through measurements on the boom arm before and after sample collection ✌️

Has NASA considered placing a satellite directly on the asteroid? Sort of a free ride.

They could have saved time and money by calling me to open it. I would even supply my own sledge hammer.

Last I heard is they still haven't opened it

The alien monster inside was obviously resisting attempts to get into the sample container.

You can get tools to open jam jars.

Did they say it took three months to get the lid open ? ....NASA isn't what it used to be.

80% of this video was unnecessary. The people reading this, and interested in the samples returned, have known most of which was presented. Stick to the topic listed in the title. The very least you could have done is explain what the fastener problem was and why it was so difficult to find a way of removing them. But no, you rehashed stuff already available through other sources.

NASA should stick to strictly Science and trash your expensive Boondoogle Rocket.

I've got multiple problems with this mission: 1. Modified dentist drill? Dude, spray some WD40 on those screws & quit wasting our money already. 2. Carbon & water? For what we just invested, it better have come back with diamonds & gold! We've got plenty of carbon & water on Earth already. 3. You mean to tell me this rock has a chance to hit Earth, you landed a craft on the thing, & you didn't bother to steer it on a safe course or at least blow it up with a bomb while you were there?!
