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
