      Eh it’d soon come into contact with our trillions of different bacteria and viruses living across countless species and promptly die.

      That’s one of the reasons they have it in a totally sealed atmosphere. The other more important reason is to make sure anything we find in the sample is actually from the astroid rather than from earth.
