The Canadian Space Agency’s mission is to promote the peaceful use of space, advance scientific knowledge, and maximize the socioeconomic benefits of space technologies for Canadians. As part of the OSIRIS-REx mission, an international collaboration aimed at collecting and returning samples from the asteroid Bennu to Earth, the CSA required specialized infrastructure capable of meeting the demands of this historic mission.
Consab was commissioned to design and build the cleanrooms dedicated to receiving, handling, and analyzing samples from this asteroid. These highly controlled environments were designed to meet the most stringent standards of the space industry, ensuring the scientific integrity of the samples from the moment they arrive.
