The Hayabusa-2 mission arrived in June 2018 at the near-Earth C-type asteroid Ryugu. Several landing units were deployedT, a crater has been produced, and multiple surface samples have been collected (Earth return in December 2020). The measurements revealed a dark, kilometre-sized, double top-shaped object, very different from previous mission targets.
