Abstract

A new mission to visit and explore a Jupiter Trojan asteroid is under study in Japan using a hybrid propulsion system of solar-powered sail (SPS) and sophisticated ion engine, and additionally using a scientific lander, which is jointly investigated between engineers and scientists from Japan and Europe [1]. We present here the key objectives and the strawman payloads of science experiments on the asteroid in this mission.
