SUMMARY:Liftoff: H3-24 | DESTINY+ & RAMSES
DESCRIPTION:DESTINY+ (Demonstration and Experiment of Space Technology for 
 INterplanetary voYage with Phaethon fLyby and dUst Science) is a planned a
 steroid exploration mission to 3200 Phaethon\, the parent body of the Gemi
 nids meteor shower. It will demonstrate further improvements of low cost s
 olar electric propulsion in deep space and innovative light-weight solar a
 rray panel technology.\n\nThe spacecraft will carry 3 science instruments:
 \n\n* DESTINY Dust Analyzer (DDA)\n* Telescopic Camera for Phaethon (TCAP)
 \n* Multiband Camera for Phaethon (MCAP)\n\nRAMSES (Rapid Apophis Mission 
 for Space Safety) is a European-Japanese planetary defense mission to near
 -Earth asteroid 99942 Apophis\, led by the European Space Agency (ESA). Th
 e spacecraft will arrive around Apophis in February 2029\, before the aste
 roid’s very close fly-by to Earth on 13 April 2029. It will conduct meas
 urements of the asteroid's properties before and during the Earth flyby to
  study its response to the close encounter with the planet. \n\nThe spacec
 raft will leverage much of the technology developed for the Hera mission.\
 n\nAt the asteroid\, RAMSES will deploy two smaller CubeSats\, one carryin
 g a dust analyser\, a low-frequency radar\, the other will attempt to land
  on Apophis and provide high-resolution images from the surface.\nMitsubis
