@haya2e_jaxa Wow! These new images of Ryugu are reminiscent of the radar data (left) and the current shape model (right) of asteroid Bennu.

We have just passed the 150 km mark! We’ll soon be at asteroid Ryugu.

At a distance of only 330 - 240km from Ryugu, we are starting to make out the shape! Ryugu seems to have an equatorial ridge and deep craters; a structure not unlike the destination of @OSIRISREx, asteroid Bennu. Where will we land? https://t.co/Ad0NUC5dfZ

We have seen Ryugu rotating! A series of 52 images taken at a distance of about 700km show an angular-looking asteroid. https://t.co/nGff3YIPLs
