From the rotation clip, it looks like a junebug on it's back, trying to get upright, or mabe a kidney bean.

It should be there now, just firing the engines to place itself along side the hunk of bean-shaped rock. I'd love to see some images.

It's worth checking out the Japanese language section of the Hayabusa site as although it's in, er, Japanese, the images seem to be updated faster than on the English language version...

QUOTE (Chmee @ Sep 9 2005, 12:36 PM) So the conclusion is ... that this asteroid is a giant bean?? This was slipped from a farmer's bag at billions years ago.  New update: Today's HAYABUSA As of 9:30 2005/09/09(JST) Distance from Earth : 322,725,650km Distance from Itokawa : 99km Wait for less than 79 km to arrive at the gate...to take more pictures at this... Thinking that by now that Hayabusa must be navigating at lower than 7km/h when it was 220 km from Itokawa and I calculate that between 2 and 3 more days, on next Monday September 12, Hayabusa will be hovering on Itokawa. cross fingers...

It will have arrived at 20 km. Although I am looking forward to these images, I am especially looking forward to the second phase of global mapping, when it will take high phase angle images. This is also cool. http://www.isas.jaxa.jp/e/snews/2005/0908.shtml -------------------- |

I hope it has a higher res imaging capability than what we are seeing now from just 47km.

The closest released images are from 30 km
