The HII-A rocket launch from Tanegashima Space Centre in Kagoshima was shown on live video by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, known as Jaxa.
Japan has launched a rocket carrying an X-ray telescope that will explore the origins of the universe as well as a small lunar lander
That information helps in studying how celestial objects were formed, and will hopefully lead to solving the mystery of how the universe was created, Jaxa said. “Understanding the distribution of this hot plasma in space and time, as well as its dynamical motion, will shed light on diverse phenomena such as black holes, the evolution of chemical elements in the universe and the formation of galactic clusters,” he said.
The lander successfully separated from the rocket about 45 minutes after the launch and proceeded on its proper track to eventually land on the Moon. Jaxa workers applauded and bowed to each other from their observation facility.
