Return of Japanese Unmanned Spacecraft in Seven Years
A Japanese unmanned spacecraft returned to the Earth. It travelled 6 billion kilometers in the space. It reentered the Earth’s atmosphere at 13:51, June 13, 2010. It landed with parachute near Woomera Australia.
The spacecraft was named ‘Hayabusa.’ Hayabusa means falcon in Japanese. It is a spacecraft developed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (일본우주항공연구개발기구). This spacecraft was launched on May 9, 2003. It met with the asteroid called Itokawa in mid-September 2005.
Hayabusa was not designed to land but it was to simply touch the surface. Hayabusa did land and sit on the asteroid surface for about 30 minutes in November 2005.
The spacecraft was scheduled to fire its engines to begin its cruise back to the Earth. However, this was delayed due to some problems. Hayabusa studied the asteroid’s shape, color, composition, density, and history.
