In most images, difference between vertical direction and N-S is smaller than 10deg. Image resolution is 3mm/pixel at best. Equatorial region is covered by 30cm/pixel data. Image size is 1024 x 1024 pixels. In most images, difference between vertical direction and N-S is smaller than 10deg. Hayabusa 2 spacecraft revealed that the surface of 162173 Ryugu is covered with various sizes of boulders. On Ryugu, 4400 boulders larger than 5m are observed; the relative abundance of large boulders (>20m) is about twice as that of Itokawa or Bennu [1,2]. Those large boulders on Ryugu can be considered as impact fragments from size distribution and their axial ratio [2]. Recently, thermal fatigue has been advocated for the disintegration process of surface rocks [3], where diurnal (and annual) thermal cycle may promote crack growth in the rocks on regolith over various spatial and temporal scales [4]. We noticed that cracks on Ryugu boulders have preferred orientation. Cracks/fractures with meridional (north-south) direction are frequently observed [5] in high resolution images where boulder size is between a few tens cm and a few m. Since Ryugu has almost retrograde rotation (172deg), Ryugu surface would experiense east-west asymmetry of solar heating. Desert rocks of the Earth and Mars have preferred orientation of cracks [6,7]. This would be explained by thermal process, including freezing. Here in this study, we analyzed more than 500 cracks on Ryugu boulders and checked their orientations. We analyzed 124 images (taken from 50-4000m height at proximity operation phase such as rover deployment and touch-down sampling, or their rehearsals) by Hayabusa-2 ONC-T. Image resolution is 3mm/pixel at best. Image size is 1024 x 1024 pixels. We confirm the image position and resolution from shape model matching (SPC) and/or altimetry data by LIDAR. Hayabusa 2 usually observes the surface from the direction of the sun, which provide low phase angle data with short shadow width. We carefully check images so that we do not pick up the shadowed surface structure as a crack. Some cracks are confirmed using an image with different (larger) solar phase angle. To check if a rock has a crack or not, 15-20 pixels are necessary. At the highest resolution, we may check a rock as small as 20cm. Assuming the same range size, about 2-5% of boulders have cracks. So far, we do not observe changes of the abundance ratio of cracked rocks on the Ryugu surface. Western bulge region (160E-70W) would have fewer abundance of the rocks both with and without cracks. We classified cracks into four styles: examples and histograms of crack orientation are shown. (a) Straight cracks: Some cracks are running linearly without bending or kinking. Some straight cracks are associated with open fracture. (b) Sinuous cracks: Some cracks have bowing, bending, and wavy structure. (c) Arrested cracks: We observed many rocks have a crack which does not go through. It looks like a grow- ing crack or stop of crack propagation. (d) Complex (typically branched) cracks: Sometimes a boulder would have been broken into several pieces. We separated the strike of cracks into 18 directions with 10deg bin. We analyzed 538 boulders and found 60% of their cracks have the meridional direction (+-15deg from N-S) except complex type. This trend is common among crack types as well as rock size. If boulder cracks on Ryugu are formed by impact processes, whether impacts occur before or after Ryugu formation, the direction of cracks should distribute more randomly. So far, solar-induced thermal stress on a surface boulder by diurnal rotation and annual revolution of Ryugu might be a possible process for the growth of boulder cracks in the meridional direction, as discussed for the preferred crack orientation of desert rocks of the Earth and Mars [4,6,7]. However, we need to explain why large boulders (> 10m, larger than thermal length scale) have preferred crack orientation. Preferred orientation of cracks is also observed on boulders of Bennu [8]; they would be driven by solar-induced thermal stress. References: [1] Sugita, S. et al (2019) Science 364.
