Rank 45 documents Hayabusa2 — JAXA's asteroid sample return mission that rendezvoused with near-Earth asteroid Ryugu, deployed rovers and a small carry-on impactor to excavate subsurface material, and returned a sample capsule to Earth in December 2020. Launched 3 December 2014 aboard H-2A from Tanegashima, the ion-engine probe used efficient electric propulsion for the six-year round trip — a architecture visible in the master PNG's flat-panel solar arrays and downward-pointing thruster. Hayabusa2 built on the troubled but ultimately successful original Hayabusa Itokawa mission, delivering pristine carbon-rich Ryugu grains that scientists analyse for clues about the solar system's formation and the origin of water and organic molecules on Earth. Wallimilist renders the ion-engine probe with thin-ring Ryugu orbit, cream technical-blueprint archive with HAYABUSA2 slab title, RYUGU SAMPLES RETURNED TO EARTH kicker, and COLLECTED SUBSURFACE ASTEROID MATERIAL footer exactly as the master PNG dictates — JAXA and Hayabusa2 badge emblems, specimen data bands, and curator copy on Japanese deep-space heritage.
