In a first-of-its-kind mission, TII’s probe aboard the MBR Explorer will journey past six asteroids in the main belt before landing on 269 Justitia, making it only the seventh asteroid in history to be reached on its surface by a probe

Designed, built and tested in Abu Dhabi, TII’s probe is the mission’s only deployable payload, operating fully autonomously around and on Justitia

Thought to have formed in the distant Kuiper Belt in the outer Solar System, 269 Justitia may preserve clues to how water and organic material were distributed during the formation of the planets

TOKYO -
(BUSINESS WIRE) -- JEOL Ltd. (President & CEO Izumi Oi) announces the development of its new low‑angle ion‑milling scanning electron microscope, HAXIS, and will commence sales on October 5, 2026.

HAXIS Low-angle Ion Milling Scanning Electron Microscope
