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.

Some overdue news:
1. „Material from the Hayabusa2 press conference on Apr. 27th, including initial results obtained from spectroscopic measurements (FTIR and MicrOmega) of the sample from Ryugu. These early results indicate that the sample seems to consist of primitive material from the Solar System, containing water or carbon related minerals, indicating the existence of water in Ryugu’s parent body": https://www.hayabusa2.jaxa.jp/en/enjoy/mate..._ver8_en_v3.pdf https://curation.isas.jaxa.jp/en/topics/21-05-07.html https://www.hayabusa2.jaxa.jp/en/enjoy/material/ 2. „Anomalously porous boulders on (162173) Ryugu as primordial materials from its parent body”: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-021-01371-7 https://www.hayabusa2.jaxa.jp/topics/20210602_Nature/ https://global.jaxa.jp/press/2021/05/20210525-1_e.html "Figure 1: TIR images [a, b] and ONC images (c, d) of the discovered high porosity boulders (hot spot area is indicated in red). The images on the right are enlargements of those on the left, and in the ONC image (d), the boulders near the hot spot are outlined in white lines. These boulders may have a very high porosity (from ©Sakatani et al., 2021)." |
