[i]After checking the data sent from Hayabusa2, we can confirm that the MASCOT separated from the spacecraft as planned. Hayabusa2 is now ascending and the state of the spacecraft is normal. [URL=http://www.hayabusa2.jaxa.jp/en/topics/20181002e_MSC/]MASCOT[/URL] has a lithium primary battery that will last approximately 16 hours. This is about two asteroid days on Ryugu! Once the battery runs out, the lander operation will end.[/i]
