On Feb 11, 2012 will be the theatrical release of a dramatic movie about the Hayabusa mission. It looks like an expensive production: they built a copy of the main JAXA control room for the film.
Here is the web site: http://www.hayabusa2012.jp/index.html You can watch some trailers there. Watch the one marked 'ver 2' in particular. It's all in Japanese, but hopefully there will be an eventual DVD release with subtitles. |

Last night I saw HAYABUSA: The Long Return Home (TOEI Company, LTD.) It was really well-done film, I thought. Ken Watanabe was very good as Professor Yamaguchi. The English subtitles were specially commissioned by the JAXA representatives for this showing. From following along on unmannedspaceflight.com, I had a pretty good idea of what was going to happen and, as far as I could tell, the movie was quite accurate. There was even a shout out to the "official energy drink." The reception had wine, plentiful sushi, and barely edible Japanese space food, and they gave out cardboard models of the HTV filled with cookies. It was a very enjoyable event. They will be showing HAYABUSA (20th Century Fox Japan) on Monday, October 29.
