And that’s a wrap! NARIT (National Astronomical Research Institute of Thailand) developed a fabulous display for the asteroid Ryugu grain brought to Earth by the #JAXA Hayabusa2 mission in both Bangkok and Chiang Mai: it was wonderful to work with the Thai team! Our asteroid grain is now heading home to Japan ✈️
