JAXA wants to continue with Hayabusa 2. However there is/was a huge fight about the budget. Main problem was the budget for the launch vehicle. 2 months ago or so there was a report which said, that JAXA had to find another launch vehicle or the project gets cancelled. Now the Italian space agency played saviour and overed the VEGA. So finally we might see another Hayabusa in 2011.

For those interested in the ongoing research of the Ryugu samples, some useful (I think) link(s):
https://curation.isas.jaxa.jp/en/ - ASRG (Astromaterials Science Research Group) homepage - sample testing is underway here (I hope there will be some current news) https://curation.isas.jaxa.jp/en/sample-curation/ryugu/ - detailed description of current and future sample testing process https://curation.isas.jaxa.jp/en/sample-cur.../collaboration/ - international cooperation Photo 1 and info from January 29, 2021: „...The picture shows the work that the samples in the clean chamber are being handled with a vacuum tweezer and stored into the designated container.” (https://curation.isas.jaxa.jp/en/topics/21-01-29.html) Photo 2: Loop needle used to carry samples Photo 3: A known picture of chamber A with samples, but in high resolution (https://s3-ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/jaxa-jda/http_root/photo/P100013138/a355b28bcd771d5bb3a57e68c3a6b8c3.jpg) |
