Carbonaceous Asteroid
Sample
Return
Mission
Asteroid Ryugu
The Hayabusa2 mission will explore the carbonaceous asteroid
Ryugu and return a sample of its surface to Earth for
study in state-of-the-art laboratories. Ryugu is a
leftover from the era of planet formation 4.5 billion
years ago and may be rich in water and organic
molecules - the raw ingredients of life! Launched in
2014, Hayabusa2 will reach Ryugu in July 2018 and
return a sample in late 2020.
