Detail

Hayabusa2 (the point of light at the center) captured by the Subaru Telescope. The blurring of the background stars is due to the motion of the telescope tracking the spacecraft. Five images with 3 minutes exposure taken at 00:12-00:29 on November 20, 2020 (Hawaiʻi Standard Time) are stacked. The field of view of the image is 2.0 arcmin × 1.0 arcmin. (Credit: NAOJ)
