MicrOmega (near-IR hyperspectral microscope) can measure samples without contamination or destruction. The initial description which is measuring weight, observing appearance, color and size, and analyzing IR reflection spectra here, is performed to identify the characteristics of samples. It is expected to provide evidence that the sample is derived from Ryugu, and it also serves as information for the distribution of the sample to research institutions and researchers.
