Hiten
The Hiten Spacecraft (ひてん, Japanese pronunciation: [hiteɴ]), given the English name Celestial Maiden and known before launch as MUSES-A (Mu Space Engineering Spacecraft A), part of the MUSES Program, was built by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science of Japan and launched on January 24, 1990. It was Japan's first lunar probe, the first robotic lunar probe since the Soviet Union's Luna 24 in 1976, and the first lunar probe launched by a state other than the Soviet Union or the United States.
Hiten was to have been placed into a highly elliptical Earth orbit with an apogee of 476,000 km, which would swing past the Moon. However, the injection took place with a delta-v deficit of 50 m/s, resulting in an apogee of only 290,000 km. The deficiency was corrected and the probe continued on its mission.
On the first lunar swing-by, Hiten released a small orbiter, Hagoromo (はごろも, named after the feather mantle of Hiten), into lunar orbit. The transmitter on Hagoromo failed, but its orbit was visually confirmed from Earth. After the eighth swing-by, Hiten successfully demonstrated the aerobraking technique on March 19, 1991. This was the first aerobraking maneuver by a deep space probe. After the ninth lunar swing-by and second aero-braking maneuver on March 30, 1991, the primary mission of the probe was concluded.

Big Life (one Last Goodbye)
by: HateenI want you to know
that I loved you everyday
in a special and single way
for all my life,for all my days...for all my days
my big life went away from where i could reach my
dreams
I miss the shining in your smile in those university
hallways,always
(do you need her now)
she´s all I got
(it´s hard to see but she´s gone)
she can´t do this
I´ve been in love with you all my life
(but she makes you sad)
she´ll always be mine
waiting days for your phonecalls
waiting years to be with you
hoping things could be ok
hoping that you could comeback one day
empty days keep me away from my happiness
my big life,my big mistake – my big mistake
and all the times I prayed
all the shame all the pain I tasted
all the songs I´ve made for you
all the letters I´ve written for you
I just wanted to say one last goodbye
Maybe we can try in another life
One last goodbye,just one more time
Maybe we can try just one more time
One last goodbye...
I know you can´t stay,but you´ll always be here
