Hayabusa 2 has started its descent towards Ryugu for Minerva deployment. Real time navigation images are posted here. One new image every half hour or so.

Thanks, Pandaneko. Is the mission being well-covered by the Japanese media? Wondering if you and other people in Japan will get updates faster than the rest of us.

Thanks, Pandaneko. Is the mission being well-covered by the Japanese media? Wondering if you and other people in Japan will get updates faster than the rest of us. Not at all. I am upset about it, actually. There were many reporters at the press conference from many different media groups, but they do not seem to write about rovers. My guess is that their bosses ignore them and send their draft articles straight into dustbin. MASCOT may get more publicity when it lands on Ryugu because it is not Japanese by origin. P |
