...starting a new thread for Hayabusa's sampling feedback and the return voyage.
After its nail-biting success in November, will there be enough fuel for the Falcon to make it home? -------------------- --O'Dave

The Hayabusa orbits plot is in sun-earth-fixed ROTATING coordinates. The loops are where the spacecraft, I think at perehilion, is travelling faster than Earth, while the rest of the orbit it's travelling slower.
