Distant Location
However...
*Ker-screeeech*
Hayabusa finally came into range of Itokawa.

Minerva: It's this distance. We must persevere.
I - a - m - f - i - n - e

Located at the farthest point from Earth.
Same year, May 25th

Minerva: It's because we're extremely distant from the sun.
Furthest point from the Sun
February 18th, 2005.
She's steadily getting farther from the Earth and the Sun.
It's cold...
Uuuuuuuh....
The gravity assist succeeded. Hayabusa is on orbit to Itokawa.
