Asteroid Ryugu contains material older than the planets
All About Space UK|Issue 132
Ryugu contains some of the most primitive material ever studied on Earth, dating back to just 5 million years after the formation of the Solar System according to analyses of samples retrieved by Japan's Hayabusa2 mission. Because it's so old, it's made of the same material that formed the planets. "Ryugu is one of the building blocks of Earth," Hisayoshi Yurimoto, a professor at Hokkaido University in Japan, said.
