SUMMARY:Hayabusa 2\, Asteroid 98943 Torifune Flyby
DESCRIPTION:JAXA Hayabusa 2 mission to flyby S-type asteroid 98943 Torifune within 1 to 10 km of the asteroid’s surface at a relative velocity of approximately 5 km/s. The mission is planned to rendezvous with asteroid 1998 KY26 in 2031\, after returning samples from (162173) Ryugu to Earth in 2020.

SUMMARY:Launch RV-X VTVL / Test flight
DESCRIPTION:1st test flight of vertical-takeoff-and-vertical-landing RV-X small rocket (6.76 m tall\, 1.83 m dia.\, 3\,138 kg); 2nd test flight planned for March 14. \nRV-X is the first of two flight experiments planned by JAXA in developing a reusable 1st stage for a next-generation launch vehicle. A 2nd vehicle planned to fly NET early 2027 is under the Callisto program (for Cooperative Action Leading to Launcher Innovation for Toss-Back Stage Operation) with partners from France and Germany. \nThe RV-X and Callisto projects are intended to acquire technology for safely operating reusable launch vehicles using liquid hydrogen as a fuel. This offers a higher specific impulse than kerosene or methane\, for a lighter vehicle\, but poses handling challenges\, JAXA says.

SUMMARY:2025 International Conference on Space Robotics
DESCRIPTION:The International Conference on Space Robotics (iSpaRo) is a new conference aiming to provide a framework for scientists and industry experts to engage in fruitful discussions and share their insights on the emerging topic of Space Robotics. In the last decade\, the advances in in-orbit servicing and satellite operations\, the renewed interest in the Moon\, recent discoveries in the exploration of Mars and Near-Earth Asteroids (NEAs)\, together with the emergence of new ventures aimed at the prospection\, extraction\, and utilization of space resources have sparked a new wave of research and commercial opportunities. Traditional and new space companies are pushing the limits of in-space activities with robotics as the disruptive technology and enabler of the next advances in this new space era.  \n\n\niSpaRo seeks to fill the gap between established robotics conferences and non-per-reviewed aerospace conferences by allowing the research community and industry professionals to engage in rigorous discussions and share their latest findings in the field. The conference aims to push the boundaries of the field of Space Robotics by exploring new research and development opportunities. The conference will feature speakers from both industry and academia\, providing attendees with valuable insights and perspectives on the latest advancements in the field. The iSpaRo conference also aims to create a network of researchers and industry professionals on this topic\, including the new generations\, fostering future collaborations and innovations.
