We’re thrilled for Makoto Yoshikawa and are excited for the @haya2e_jaxa team. “I was so moved to see these small rovers successfully explore an asteroid surface, because we could not achieve this at the time of Hayabusa, 13 years ago,” he said.

Japanese mini-rovers send back their first images as they hop around an asteroid

Two mini-rovers have sent their first pictures back from the surface of the asteroid Ryugu, a day after they were dropped off by Japan's Hayabusa 2 spacecraft.
