[ はやぶさ帰還ニコニコ生放送に20万人超殺到するも、JAXA廃止を画策する枝野・蓮舫恐怖体制の意向を汲み地上波は蓮舫忖度化 ] 変態過ぎる技術力や
その苦難を乗り越えた強運とドラマ性がアポロ13号に匹敵と称され、BBCのトップも飾った「小惑星探査機はやぶさ」帰還騒ぎですが、ネット中継はパンク、
地上波はガン無視という摩訶不思議な現象でした。我が党が選挙で圧勝するのも頷けます。おいらもニコ生についてはご多分に漏れず入室出来ませんで、
ユーストでやっていたミラーサイトを利用しましたが、結局、利用者数は20万人ちょいという結果。おいらみたいにあぶれた者がユーストニコ生ミラーとか
オーストラリア中継とか管制室中継とかへ分散していた筈だから、総利用者は数十万人、ひょっとしたら百万人超えていたかもしれないね。
地上波(東京)はこういう状態。テレビではやぶさ中継やって視聴率が稼げるのかどうかおいらは知りませんが、金掛けずに面白いのになぁと素人ながらに
思いましたです。そして残念ながら、我が政府は枝野幹事長と蓮舫大臣の強い意向もあり、はやぶさなど国民の生活に関係ないのでJAXAは潰すそうです。
だからテレビでやらないのか。JAXAを潰すと誰が利するのか?中国牛の輸入情報を見事に隠蔽したどこぞの赤松口蹄疫の後釜を彷彿しますね。(Birth of Blues)

[ Japanese Hayabusa asteroid mission comes home ] The Japanese Hayabusa container hit the top of the atmosphere just after 1350 GMT,
producing a bright fireball over southern Australia.It had a shield to cope with the heat of re-entry and a parachute for the final drop to the ground.
A recovery team later reported they had indentified the landing zone in the Woomera Prohibited Range."We just had a spectacular display out over the
Outback skies of South Australia," said Professor Trevor Ireland, from the Australian National University, who will get to work on the samples
"We could see the little sample return capsule separate from the main ship and lead its way in; and [we] just had this magnificent display of
the break-up of Hayabusa," he told BBC News.The Hayabusa mission was launched to asteroid Itokawa in 2003, spending three months at the
500m-long potato-shaped space rock in 2005.The main spacecraft, along with the sample-storage capsule, should have come back to Earth in 2007,
but a succession of technical problems delayed their return by three years. Even now, there is still some uncertainty as to whether the capsule really
does contain pieces of Itokawa.Analysis has shown the Hayabusa spacecraft's capture mechanism malfunctioned at the moment it was supposed to pick up
the asteroid rock fragments. However, Japanese space agency officials remain confident of success.They say a lot of dust would have been kicked up
when Hayabusa landed on the space rock to make the grab, and some of this material must have found its way inside the probe.
On the journey home, the Hayabusa team had to work around communication drop-outs and propulsion glitches.But each time an issue came up,
the scientists and engineers working on the project managed to find an elegant solution.Just three hours before the spacecraft began its plunge into
Earth's atmosphere, it pushed the sample capsule out in front. The main spacecraft was destroyed during the descent, accounting for most of the
spectacular light show south Australians saw in the nightsky.The container, on the other hand, was equipped with a shield made from carbon phenolic
resin which is capable of enduring temperatures that were expected to reach 3,000C on the re-entry.Radar tracking and a beacon in the container
itself were used by the recovery team to locate the parachute drop-point.The capsule will not be approached until daylight hours.The requirement to avoid
all earthly contamination means the capsule will not immediately be moved from its landing site. The mission team's safety and sterilisation protocols
will not permit the capsule's evacuation and transfer to Japan for several days.When it does leave, the container will be delivered to Jaxa's Sagamihara
curation facility for analysis. It could be some months before scientists are able to say with confidence that Hayabusa did indeed capture fragments of Itokawa.
"You hope for grams of sample but you can make do with much less than that," observed Dr Michael Zolensky who worked on Nasa's Stardust comet
sample-return mission."On Stardust, the entire sample return was on the order of thousands of nano-grams. That was thousands of grains, each of
which weighed about one nano-gram; and one of those grains you could spend a year studying," he told BBC News.Such grains would provide new insight
into the early history of the Solar System and the formation of the planets more than 4.5 billion years ago.Professor Ireland said no rocks on Earth could
provide this information because they had been recycled many times."If we look at anything on Earth it has been thoroughly through the ringer;
it's been messed up by plate-tectonic processes and geochemical processes. So if we want to look of what our Earth was made of, we have to leave Earth.
That's the importance of Hayabusa and going to Itokawa."(BBC)
