Japanese probe advances near asteroid
The Japanese probe "Hayabusa 2" successfully flew over the asteroid "Tore Voni" at a distance of less than 800 meters, traveling at speeds exceeding 18,000 kilometers per hour. This mission was part of a test to evaluate techniques for altering the trajectory of space objects and protecting Earth from asteroid threats. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) confirmed the success of the operation, which also involved collecting data about the asteroid's surface and its geographical characteristics. This operation is considered one of the most significant undertakings in terms of the probe's proximity to a near-Earth asteroid.
