Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,Tetsuya Yokoyama, Guillaume Avice, Henner Busemann, Nicolas Dauphas, Daniel P. Glavin, Ashley J.
