ЦитироватьThe small asteroid lander, MASCOT

MASCOT (Mobile Asteroid Surface Scout) is the asteroid lander jointly developed by DLR (German Aerospace Center) and CNES (French National Center for Space Studies). MASCOT is stored on the -Y-plane side of Hayabusa2 (this is the left-hand side surface when the high gain antenna is at the head and the ion engine is at the spacecraft back) and deployed fr om this position (see Figure 1).

MASCOT has the shape of a cuboid with dimensions 0.3 x 0.3 x 0.2m. The lander weighs about 10kg, and is a bit larger and heavier than the MINERVA-II1 rovers (diameter: 18cm, height: 7cm, weight: 1.1kg). (Figure 2).

On the top side of MASCOT is an antenna to communicate with the repeater (OME-E) of Hayabusa2, as with MINERVA-II1. A wide-angle camera (MASCAM) is mounted on the side to capture images of the lander's surrounding. An infrared spectroscopic microscope (MircOmega) sits on the bottom surface of MASCOT to investigate the composition and characteristics of the minerals on the surface of Ryugu. There is also a thermal radiometer (MARA) to measure the surface temperature and a magnetometer (MasMag) to measure any magnetic field.

MASCOT also has a hopping mechanism similar to that of MINERVA-II1. Using a motor to rotate a swing-arm within the lander, MASCOT can change its attitude or jump. Since MASCOT is designed to operate in the position wh ere the top antenna is directed upwards and the spectroscopic microscope faces downwards, this hopping mechanism can correct the attitude if the lander is in a different orientation once on the surface of Ryugu. MASCOT can also use the hop to move locations once; the lander does not hop multiple times like the MINERVA-II1 rovers.

For the landing site for MASCOT, a region in the southern hemisphere of Ryugu was selected (Figure 4). This location was selected based on criteria that ensured no overlap between the landing sites for the touchdown of Hayabusa2, MINERVA-II1 and MASCOT, the time to be able to communicate with Hayabusa2, the duration of sunlight exposure and expectation of scientifically meaningful exploration.

MASCOT does not use solar cells but is equipped with a lithium primary battery built into the lander. The duration of the battery is about 16 hours (about two rotations of Ryugu), allowing MASCOT to operate continuously for two Ryugu days after a successful separation. Operation of the lander will end when the battery runs out.

I'll do many things! I'll be there for two asteroid days & take lots of pictures. I've a very neat camera equipped with leds so I can take pics even if it's very dark! And maybe I'll even be able to see a boulder from the side!

ЦитироватьLive coverage: MASCOT lander set to explore asteroid Ryugu

Here's the latest view from Hayabusa 2's wide-angle navigation camera, showing asteroid Ryugu from a range of about 1.5 kilometers (1 mile). This image was captured at 2217 GMT (6:17 p.m. EDT).



Hayabusa 2 is using its control thrusters and a laser navigation system to guide it toward Ryugu. Here's a timeline of the expected events to come tonight:
    [/li]
  • 2320 GMT (7:20 p.m. EDT): Hayabusa 2 begins communicating through JAXA's Usuda ground station in Japan.
  • 0030 GMT (8:30 p.m. EDT): Hayabusa 2 is 500 meters (1,640 feet) from Ryugu.
  • 0120 GMT (9:20 p.m. EDT): Hayabusa 2 is 250 meters (820 feet) from Ryugu.
  • 0151 GMT (9:51 p.m. EDT): This is the approximate time Hayabusa 2 reaches a target altitude for deployment of MASCOT around 60 meters (196 feet) from Ryugu. Hayabusa 2 will slow its approach from 10 centimeters per second to 3 centimeters per second (0.22 mph to 0.07 mph).
  • 0155:35 GMT (9:55:55 p.m. EDT): Hayabusa 2 shuts off its control thrusters and enters a free fall toward Ryugu, tugged by the asteroid's tenuous gravity.
  • 0158:15 GMT (9:58:15 p.m. EDT): MASCOT is released from Hayabusa 2.
It will take anywhere from 5 to 10 minutes for MASCOT to reach the asteroid's surface, and the robot is predicted to touch down at a velocity of around 20 centimeters per second, or less than 0.5 mph, seven times slower than a human's average walking pace.

The battery-powered robot will likely bounce across the asteroid a few times after landing, then settle into place to begin its 16-hour science campaign. MASCOT carries an uprighting mechanism to ensure its instruments and antennas are pointed in the right direction, and an internal swing arm is available to allow the rover to hop to different locations on the asteroid during its mission, which is limited by the craft's battery power supply.

The region marked in blue in this image is the target landing zone for MASCOT.



There is some uncertainty over where MASCOT will end up after bouncing across the asteroid's surface, but the targeted touchdown location is situated in the southern hemisphere of Ryugu, at around 30 degrees south latitude.

The robot could end up anywhere within around 200 meters (656 feet) of the targeted landing site, according to the German space agency, DLR.

Getting ready! MARA is switched on, ready to start measuring temperature during descent, and so is MASMAG

[MASCOT] MASCOT has a lithium primary battery that will last approximately 16 hours. This is about two asteroid days on Ryugu! Once the battery runs out, the lander operation will end.
