2010-020D
Akatsuki (Dawn, Daybreak), Planet C is a Venus Climate Orbiter. Studies the distribution of clouds, trace gases, lightning discharges, and temperature, as well as plasma measurements and a search for active volcanism.
Mass 480 kg at launch.
320 kg prop? in 300 x 79000 km retrograde equatorial orbit. Box + 2 panels.
Box 1.04 x 1.45 x 1.40m. AOCS has 500N NTO/N2H4 thruster and 23N and 3N attitude thrusters.
HIIA 202 with 4m fairing. Launch provider is MHI with JAXA as range control.
Type 2 trajectory with 107.5 x 155.2 Mkm orbit.
Unfortunately Venus orbit insertion failed with damage to the insertion engine, and Planet C sailed on past in solar orbit. The post encounter orbit reported in Dec 2010 is 90 x 110 Mkm with 203d period.

The OME test burns in Sep 2011 showed that the engine was severely damaged and could only generate small amounts of thrust. JAXA will dump all remaining 64 kg of oxidizer to reduce mass and then eventually perform VOI on monoprop RCS alone (4 x 23N).
As of early 2015, the plan was for VOI on 2015 Dec 7 into a 300 x 300000 - 400000 km orbit.
