Presented here are the observations and interpretations from a comprehensive analysis of 16 representative particles returned from the C-type asteroid Ryugu by the Hayabusa2 mission. On average Ryugu particles consist of 50% phyllosilicate matrix, 41% porosity and 9% minor phases, including organic matter. The abundances of 70 elements from the particles are in close agreement with those of CI chondrites. Bulk Ryugu particles show higher δ18O, Δ17O, and ε54Cr values than CI chondrites. As such, Ryugu sampled the most primitive and least-thermally processed protosolar nebula reservoirs. Such a finding is consistent with multi-scale H-C-N isotopic compositions that are compatible with an origin for Ryugu organic matter within both the protosolar nebula and the interstellar medium. The analytical data obtained here, suggests that complex soluble organic matter formed during aqueous alteration on the Ryugu progenitor planetesimal (several 10’s of km), <2.6 Myr after CAI formation. Subsequently, the Ryugu progenitor planetesimal was fragmented and evolved into the current asteroid Ryugu through sublimation.

The Hayabusa2 spacecraft explored C-type near-Earth asteroid (162173) Ryugu and returned asteroidal materials, collected during two touchdown operations, to the Earth as the first sample from carbonaceous-type asteroid. The sample container, in which ~5 g of Ryugu sample was enclosed, was safely opened in the clean chamber system with no severe exposure to the terrestrial atmosphere. In the course of preparation operation of the sample container, two dark-colored millimeter- to sub-millimeter-sized particles were found outside the sealing part of the sample container. Because they look similar to the Ryugu particles inside the sample container, the particles were named as Q particles (Q from questionable). In this study, we investigated Q particles (Q001 and Q002) mineralogically and petrographically to compare them with potential contaminants (the ablator material of the reentry capsule and fine sand particles at the capsule landing site), Ryugu sample, and CI chondrites. The Q particles show close resemblance to Ryugu sample and CI chondrites, but have no evidence of terrestrial weathering that CI chondrites experienced. We therefore conclude that the Q particles are originated from Ryugu and were expelled from the sample catcher (sample storage canister) in space prior to the enclosure operation of the sample catcher in the sample container. The most likely scenario is that the Q particles escaped from the sample catcher during the retrieval of the sample collection reflector, which was the necessary operation for the sample container closing.

Tidal evolution of the earth-moon system was evaluated by estimating the change of dynamic responses of ocean and solid earth to the lunar and solar tidal force during the geological time. The effect of tide on the moon due to the earth was included in the evaluation. We obtained time variations of the orbital elements of the moon, the LOD (length of day) and obliquity of the spin axis of the earth. Our previous study suggested that the variation of LOD up to 600 million years before present estimated by paleontological studies is explained by temporal variation of the ocean continent distribution (Abe et al., 1997). In this study, we paid attention to discriminate how the continental distribution before 500 million years ago affects evaluation of the evolution process, using the continental distribution at 540 million years ago and 700-750 million years ago referred from Maruyama et al. (1997). After making investigations replacing the continental models used in the previous paper, it was suggested the results did not suffer so serious from ambiguity of continent models before about 1.5 billion yeas ago. This point leads us to understand that the small effect of the variation of continent models around these eras comes from the fact that the tidal frequency was remarkably far from the eigen-frequency of tidal response of the oceans. This also suggests that the earlier stage of the earth-moon system, than about 1.5 billion years ago, was possibly governed by mostly small and constant tidal response of the oceans and the comparable or larger effect of tides of the solid earth. Assuming the surface of the earth covered by whole ocean before 2.5 billion years ago, the time when earth-moon distance was very short is around 4.5 billion years ago and we can make almost clear the whole history of the earth-moon dynamical system due to tide after the moon was generated.
