    Not even surprised that a hayabusa would be fast enough to make it to an asteroid.

          It just means fast lol. Hayabusa is just Japanese for peregrine falcon, the haya probably deriving from fast, busa being some sort of suffix used for animals, I think (don’t quote me on that last bit).
