Okay, looks like they're on! Hopefully they can collect material and bring it back.

Hayabusa had landed on the surface Sunday for a half-hour, although it failed to collect material... Examining asteroid samples is expected to help unlock secrets of how celestial bodies were formed because their surfaces are believed to have remained relatively unchanged over the eons, unlike those of larger bodies such the planets or moons, JAXA said.
