My favorite hobby is to not collect stamps.

OK, I'll help you out, at the risk of being frowned at (or possibly thrown out). According to a lot of people I meet: Atheism is just as much a religious belief as believing in God. So it follows: Not collecting stamps is just as much a hobby as collecting stamps.

I am curious about the results of the analysis... it would be a hit if new elements were discovered, but I am not so sure if they will be.

I very much doubt that new elements will be discovered. New minerals (either new chemical compounds or new structural forms) are a definite possibility, and may teach us more about the early Solar System, or at least about how Bennu was formed.

Ok, I agree that minerals might be way more possible, but... why not a new element?
I just checked... when I studied there were 107 (IIRC) in the periodic table, and now there are 118 elements... Wouldn't be possible to have a new one?

The new elements (108..118) were made in particle accelerators, and have extremely short lifetimes. So short that their chemical properties have not, for the most part, been determined. Any new elements would have an atomic number higher than 118, and are likely to be extremely unstable (lifetime on the order of milliseconds or less). A mass the size of the Earth made of such an element would decay completely in less than 24 hours.
It is therefore extremely unlikely that we would find new elements in an asteroid.

There might be islands of stability out there though, but the chances of finding them are astronomical

Potential for misuse? Yeah, I guess that means this will never be released?

Quote: Yeah, I guess that means this will never be released?
Release to the public might need some time, but that's different to "not being used" by other parties... This is going to bring "fake" news and disinformation to a new level.
How was that quote?

I only know that for 2 reasons:
