Sorry, it is in Japanese, but it has the ephemerids and a contact to ask for computing ephemerids for predicting in other locations.

Hayabusa is expected to be about mag. 16, due to the solar panels attitude constraint. (See the figure that shows approach to the Earth, marked with "Sun direction".)
In the top link it says comes in over Glendambo city SA I had never heard of this city so as you do I googled it, it is a small place way out in the SA bush with a population of 30 ,200,000,000 plus flies, 22,000 sheep
