according to him, the probe shot into the ground by a metal bullet to the crushing of the gravel that littered the surface of the asteroid to collect samples. He then took off with Ryuga in order to return to orbit to its next landing.

Just scheduled 3 collecting ground during this mission. For example, "Hayabusa-2" is obliged to blow the charge in the ground of the asteroid to obtain samples from its depths, undisturbed by external influences of the universe.

Asteroid Ryugu in diameter is Only 900 meters, it is removed from the Earth more than 300 million kilometers.

Space probe " Hayabusa-2 ", whose name means "Falcon" approached the asteroid in June 2018, having spent the flight almost 3 and a half years. In September, the Ryuga landed two moving robot Rover-Rover 1A and-1B, which took pictures of the asteroid's surface, and a point was selected for the landing of the probe.

Scientists believe that Ryuga they will be able to find answers to the question about the origin of the solar system 4 6 billion years ago and life on Earth.
