OSIRIS-REx

node

Sampled the near-Earth asteroid Bennu and returned the sample to Earth; now extended toward Apophis as OSIRIS-APEX. Operated by NASA; launched 2016-09-08; operating. Encounter dates are the operator’s mission record; the encounter order is an order, not a trajectory, and Atlas draws no path for it.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
