The surface of asteroid Bennu has long left questions for scientists after a NASA planetary science mission showed the asteroid was actually more rough and jagged than previously expected.

The asteroid unleashed an energy of 250 tons of TNT when it fragmented over Ohio, causing the booms and explosive noises heard as far as New York, officials said.

NASA has used advanced imaging techniques to peer inside samples of asteroid Bennu, discovering extensive networks of cracks running throughout the rock particles.
