Asteroid. The big cosmic rocks heading towards the earth at very high speed were and remain a source of many mysteries and theories, but everything would be solved in the not too distant future. The Japanese space agency intends to bring to earth the first piece of an asteroid that is heading towards Earth at high speed, something that NASA could not do until now, and something that it could not do before the Japanese.
Asteroid. Ryugu is the rock on which the Japanese recently sent a probe named Hayabusa 2, which began to analyze the surface there very carefully, but this is only the first part of the plan. The Japanese want to bring a piece of this asteroid to Earth, so they have made plans for a second mission that will bring a first piece of it for advanced analysis by space agency researchers.
ASTEROID. AMAZING announcement of one coming FAST to Earth
Asteroid. The Japanese Hayabusa 2 shuttle launched two small shuttles on the rock to record images from the surface, but a third one will also collect the first samples that will be brought to Earth. This shuttle will be recovered, and in the coming months, maybe even within a year, problems collected from this asteroid will be brought to earth by the Japanese for a very careful analysis of what is there at the moment.
Asteroid. The shuttle with the samples will be sent to Earth to land somewhere in Australia, in an area used by the military to test various aircraft, and from there it will be collected by the Japanese. Thanks to these rock samples taken from the asteroid, researchers will be able to get a much clearer idea of what makes up such a cosmic object, and so everyone will learn more about them.
Asteroid. The mission is currently scheduled to be completed by the end of 2020, so everything depends on how the landing on the rock will be made, how the samples will be collected, and returned to the mother ship.
