Hayabusa2 achieved one of the most impressive engineering feats in modern space exploration: collecting a physical sample from the asteroid Ryugu. This Breakthrough episode explains how the spacecraft used high-precision maneuvers, specialized sampling hardware, and even a small impactor to blast open the asteroid’s surface and retrieve subsurface material. These samples may unlock important insights into the origins of our solar system and the building blocks of life.
