Hera is a spacecraft developed by the European Space Agency for its space safety program. Its primary mission objective is to study the Didymos binary asteroid system that was impacted four years earlier by the NASA Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft and contribute to validation of the kinetic impact method to deviate a near-Earth asteroid from a colliding trajectory with Earth.
Hera probe and its 2 CubeSats, Milani and Juventas. Hera is the European component of the ESA–NASA AIDA mission. The Hera spacecraft, approved on 29 November 2019, [24] will focus on key measurements to validate impact and asteroid deflection models, such as the detailed characterisation of the impact crater made by the DART impactor.

Rockets from the Falcon 9 family have a success rate of 99.32% and have been launched 442 times over 15 years, resulting in 439 full successes, two in-flight failures (SpaceX CRS-7 and Starlink Group 9–3), one pre-flight failure (AMOS-6 while being prepared for an on-pad static fire test), and one partial failure (SpaceX CRS-1, which delivered its cargo to the International Space Station ...
ESA signed a contract with OHB Italia SpA for preliminary work on the mission in October 2024 and has also unveil the official mission patch. A funding decision is expected to be made in late 2025 at the ESA Ministerial Council. Ramses will be "an adaptation of Hera", launched in 2024. [4] [5]
There have been thirty-three overall missions towards minor planets, with four of them being flyby missions that were not intended to explore minor planets, marked in grey background. [1] [2] Many minor planets are in two domains: Asteroid belt, between 2–3 AU (0.30–0.45 billion km) Kuiper belt, between 30–60 AU (4.5–9.0 billion km)
HERACLES (Human-Enhanced Robotic Architecture and Capability for Lunar Exploration and Science) is a planned robotic transport system to and from the Moon by Europe (), Japan and Canada that will feature a lander called the European Large Logistic Lander (EL3, or Argonaut), a Lunar Ascent Element, and a rover.
