HKA Japanese space probe named Hayabusa2, roughly the size of a refrigerator, executed a close fly-by of the near-Earth asteroid Torifune on Sunday. This maneuver was part of a test mission aimed at developing technology to potentially deflect hazardous asteroids from colliding with Earth. The probe flew within approximately 800 meters of the asteroid without making contact, focusing on assessing precise trajectory control capabilities. This follows NASA’s 2022 mission where a spacecraft intentionally collided with the asteroid Dimorphos to alter its orbital path. JAXA confirmed the successful execution of the fly-by, stating the spacecraft is operating normally.
