Scientific paper

Asteroids and the comets are an integral and uniquely important part of our solar system. Not only do they provide insights into the nature of primordial solar system material (the material from which the Sun and planets were formed) but their impact onto planetary surfaces is one of the most important geological and biological forces for change. They are also a potential natural resource and target for human exploration and development of space. Thus there are both scientific and sociocultural reasons for asteroid sample return. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
