Summary
| Description |
English: The asteroid lander MASCOT (Mobile Asteroid Surface Scout) has been on its way to the near-Earth Asteroid (162173) Ryugu (1999 JU3) since three December 2014. Currently on board the Japanese Hayabusa2 orbiter, it will reach its destination in 2018. Once there, the Haybusa2 probe will fly over the asteroid and collect material from the surface to be sent back to Earth. MASCOT, on the other hand, will free fall from a height of 100 metres, landing on the asteroid, which has a diameter of one kilometre. It will move around and, for the first time in the history of space travel, carry out measurements in several areas of the asteroid. |
