Today's technology is growing rapidly. Not only thrive in the environment around it, but had flown away into space. Humans began to explore every corner of the universe. Until they began to develop aircraft-launched spacecraft carrying a research mission.
One space probe named Hayabusa has been officially certified by Guinness World Records as the world's first spacecraft back to earth with a material collected from the asteroid. This mini plane is the first successful take-off from an asteroid and return to Earth. It is a pride for technological progress of mankind.
Unmanned aircraft launched by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) to the asteroid Itokawa in 2003, spent three months in the asteroid shaped like a potato that has a diameter of up to 500 meters.
The main spacecraft, along with sample storage capsule, returning to Earth in 2010 after completing a seven-year journey as far as 6 billion miles. The plane was supposed to arrive back on Earth in 2007, but there was a technical problem that made it back floating in space for three more years.
Guinness World Records recognizes Hayabusa as "Spacecraft first successful take-off from an asteroid."
