Japanese space agency, JAXA finds ample gas, soil from asteroid Ryugu

Japanese space agency, JAXA finds ample gas, soil from asteroid Ryugu On December 14, a sample of grains of black sand thought to be derived from asteroid Ryugu was confirmed to be inside the sample container. Tokyo: The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) on Tuesday confirmed that the gas collected from the sample container inside the re-entry capsule of the asteroid explorer, Hayabusa2, is a gas sample originating from asteroid Ryugu. The Hayabusa2 re-entry capsule was recovered in Woomera, Australia on December 6 and delivered to the JAXA Sagamihara campus in Japan on December 8. Work then began to open the sample container inside the re-entry capsule. On December 14, a sample of grains of black sand thought to be derived from asteroid Ryugu was confirmed to be inside the sample container.

What Hayabusa2 brought back from asteroid Ryugu - Just gas particles

What did Hayabusa2 bring back from asteroid Ryugu? Scientists upbeat but analysis disappointing The sample from Hayabusa2 is the world s first sample return of a material in the gas state from deep space, says JAXA, though failed high expectations of solid rock samples from Ryugu. Next is NASA s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft that is expected to bring samples from the asteroid Bennu December 16, 2020 10:53 IST Ten days after the return of Japan s Hayabusa2, the re-entry capsule of the asteroid explorer, Japanese scientists opened the sample container to find grains of black sand, believed to be particles attached to the entrance of the sample catcher.

World s first gas state sample from deep space confirmed

Analysis results from the gas collected from the sample container of the asteroid explorer, Hayabusa2 The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) has confirmed that the gas collected from the sample container inside the re-entry capsule of the asteroid explorer, Hayabusa2, is a gas sample originating from asteroid Ryugu. The result of the mass spectrometry of the collected gas within the sample container performed at the QLF (Quick Look Facility) established at the Woomera Local Headquarters in Australia on December 7, 2020, suggested that the gas differed from the atmospheric composition of the Earth. For additional confirmation, a similar analysis was performed on December 10 – 11 at the Extraterrestrial Sample Curation Center on the JAXA Sagamihara Campus. This has led to the conclusion that the gas in the sample container is derived from asteroid Ryugu.
