Hayabusa2 arrived at the asteroid Ryugu in June 2018, and as of April 2019, the mission succeeded in conducting two rovers landing, one lander landing, one spacecraft touchdown/sample collection and one kinetic impact operation. This paper describes the initial nine months of the asteroid proximity operation activity of the Hayabusa2 mission, and gives an overview of the achievements thus far. Some important engineering and scientific activities conducted synchronously with spacecraft operations in order to complete all planned operations in time against unexpectedly harsh environment of Ryugu are also described.
