Examples of Summary Original Text from Source “The Osiris-Rex spacecraft is happy and
healthy,” said Richard Kuhns, the program manager at Lockheed Martin, which built the spacecraft.
A year from now, Osiris-Rex will swing back
around and make a close flyby of Earth, using the planet’s gravity to tilt the angle of its orbit to match that of Bennu, a carbon-rich asteroid that is 1,600 feet in diameter and has an orbit around the sun similar to Earth’s. It is about as wide as the Empire State Building is tall.
Osiris-Rex — a shortening of Origins, Spectral
Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security, Regolith Explorer — will catch up to Bennu in 2018, entering orbit for more than a year of observation to allow scientists to figure out where they want to scoop their sample.
The spacecraft will then swoop in and touch
Bennu’s surface for a few seconds, using a burst of nitrogen to kick up pebbles and dirt. Osiris-Rex is to leave Bennu in 2021 and drop off the asteroid samples in 2023.
We think that this approach provides insight
into the often rancorous, even vicious debate over the effort in various iterations of Trumpcare to repeal Obamacare. The now seven-year-long vow to repeal/replace Obamacare, while ostensibly about health care access, costs, inclusion, freedom of choice to purchase health insurance or not, and not having to pay a penalty for not purchasing coverage, is at its deepest level, about something disturbing. While healthcare is the focus of the argument, Obamacare is also a highly charged symbol of a black man’s influence on American politics and culture (Stein, 2017b).
Obamacare is the object of unbridled hatred
on the right and beyond rational discussion and political compromise (the despised C word) (Marcotte, 2015). The crusade to eradicate Obamacare has been relentless. Vindictive language is used to describe its many failures and the President who led the creation of the despicable legislation that violates many rigidly held and interpreted conservative and libertarian principles (Marcotte, 2015; Daily Kos, 2013). The campaign has persisted for years, starting January 19, 2011 through many dozens of votes to repeal and replace Obamacare, consuming Congress and providing a rallying cry for the 2016 election cycle.
Summary:
The surge in hate and the accompanying rally to dismantle the Affordable Care Act can be seen as racism: a way for white Americans to whitewash the legacy of a black president (Stein and Allcorn 235- 237).

Summary with In-text Citation Summary:
Nasa sent a spacecraft to collect rocks from an asteroid in 2016 and it will continue to return to it every few years and collect samples until 2023 (Chang).
