NASA’s OSIRIS-REx has successfully marked an impressive feat as its capsule safely touched down Sunday morning, carrying valuable samples collected from the asteroid Bennu.
OSIRIS-REx marked the conclusion of an extraordinary odyssey spanning approximately four billion miles over the course of seven years. These invaluable samples from the asteroid Bennu were meticulously collected by OSIRIS-REx spacecraft, which executed a precise maneuver by flying near Earth in the early hours of Sunday morning. The spacecraft then released the capsule, which descended to a landing zone located in the Utah desert. It was reported that the capsule landed at 8:52 a.m. MT, three minutes ahead of the scheduled landing time.
OSIRIS-REx embarked on a journey from the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida back in September 2016, and boarded a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. This started the two-year odyssey with a destination set for the 1,720-foot wide asteroid known as 101955 Bennu. When the team touched down in Bennu’s vicinity in August 2018, the spacecraft dedicated another two years to closely study the asteroid’s surface.
Upon the successful completion of its comprehensive study, the spacecraft approached the surface of asteroid Bennu to retrieve samples. In 2021, once the samples from Bennu were securely stored in a return capsule, OSIRIS-REx activated its propulsion system and began a lengthy journey spanning 1.2 billion miles back to Earth.

After its successful return, OSIRIS-REx will set sail on another journey, this time destined for a different asteroid.

Is it silly to want conspiracies to be for conspiracies and discussions thereof (even if you don't agree with them yourself - which is fine)?
Is it silly to not want shitposting like yours to waste peoples time, troll, and generally bring the quality of the community down?
If so, then yes - i am "silly".
Not according to rule #1 here, no. However i suspect clemaneuverers probably agrees with you.
It's always easy (and embarrassing) to "make fun", but it is much harder to actually understand instead.
I know, which is why it doesn't belong on conspiracies and is merely shitposting.
Making fun of / harassing people that you don't agree with and/or put stock in their conspiratorial views is the opposite of the purpose of this community. Making fun of the (faux, in your view) conspiracy itself arguably is - but you didn't do that at all.
You're just being silly, and setting yourself up as a moral gatekeeper. Are you a mod? No, you're not. And notice how your argument has changed as well. Move along.
Morality has little, if anything to do with it. I want conspiracies to be a place to discuss conspiracies and related topics. You want it to be a place with vapid shitposting.
What "argument"? Nothing has changed at all. You posted junk that wasn't appropriate on the community and i called you out - end. There isn't any argument at all.
Out of curiosity, what "argument" do you think there was initially, and when did it change?
Repeating your subjective standards over and over again doesn't change the fact that they are subjective.
You're not even aware of how you've shifted your argument? Sheesh.
The community rules are in the sidebar. It's rule #1. It's objective enough for our purposes, and has nothing to do with me.
There is no argument. You made a shitpost, i called you out. No argument whatsoever.
I am only curious what argument you think there was initially and what you believe it changed into. Can you really not describe it at all? Doesn't that worry you?
