Greetings Meteorite-List Friends!

I just can't resist sending this hot-off-the-press link to asteroid 
Bennu! It could be related to meteorites in our collections... or not.

See this hot-off-the-press link to asteroid Bennu at 100 pixels taken by 
NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft on Oct. 29, 2018 from a distance of about 
205 miles (330 km):

I am sure you will agree that it is a bold, beautiful and interesting 
place already!

Best regards!
Dolores Hill
