Original: Tiny Grains From Asteroid Bennu Reveal How Jupiter Shaped the Early Solar System

New analysis of tiny grains from asteroid Bennu suggests the samples hold clues about how Jupiter influenced the formation and arrangement of the early Solar System. The findings point to material preserved from the Solar System's infancy, offering scientists a rare record of conditions during planet formation. Researchers say the grains could refine models of how giant planets shaped the distribution of rocky material.
