There are no signs of water and life on Ryugu asteroids?

The Hayabusa2 spacecraft of the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) did not detect any evidence of water on the Ryugu asteroid, ending the hope of life that exists in this place .

Since arriving at Ryugu asteroid in June this year, the Hayabusa2 Spacecraft probe has studied 54,000 points on its surface.

The results show that Ryugu asteroids are classified as C-type asteroids , a type of asteroids that contain high levels of carbon and often have moisture in the rocks scattered on their surfaces.

Scientists want to find evidence of such moisture on Ryugu's geological surface, because the presence of water can cause asteroids to survive at present or in the future.

Located 186,400,000 miles (300 million km) from Earth, Ryugu rotates around its axis 7.5 hours / 1 time and takes 474 days to orbit the Sun.

Scientists claim that, until now, the vessel's probe has not seen any signs of water on the geological surface of a Ryugu asteroid . The probe will continue to study this problem by dropping four small knives to Ryugu's surface for further sampling.

The ship will leave Ryugu in December 2019 and return to Earth to bring the samples back.

Currently, even if there is no evidence of water found on Ryugu, that does not mean that it never has water. It is possible that water once existed but then evaporated, possibly through interaction with light from the Sun.
