OUTER LIMITS: Scientists Discover Asteroid Ryugu Came From Edges of Outer Space

International researchers have revealed that the Ryugu asteroid originated from the outer edge of the Solar System beyond the orbits of Jupiter and Saturn. Iron isotopes from Ryugu's rock samples suggested that the asteroid's construction significantly differed from typical carbon-rich meteorites in the Solar system. Now scientists from the Max…
