Japan’s Space Ventures

Japan is one of the world’s leading nations in the field of scientific research and is furthering advancements in space exploration. The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency conducts numerous studies, including its own aviation research, and planetary and space research. It also endeavours to develop rockets and satellites. It is preparing its own space exploration plans, beginning with the launch of its very own “Venus Climate Orbiter,” which is set for 2010.

Japan’s past achievements in space technology include the launch of the Selenological and Engineering Explorer, a lunar orbit explorer riding a carrier rocket. The SELENE is currently known as the most important mission to have been conducting lunar probes since the Apollo program. Truly, Japanese technological conquests – not only in space technology but in other areas as well – are something to be looked up to and admired.
