I don't understand how you could have a void at the centre of Bennu; where would all the fine material absent from the surface have migrated to? Don't get me wrong, a hollow asteroid would be an amazing discovery, but the paper itself ( https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/6/41/eabc3350 ) does not mention the 'void' quoted in the articles.
