Research Divisions

To operate the organization it has a steering committee supervised by Director that consists of professors and researchers belonging to their respective departments or institutions. The organization has several specific divisions, such as Division of Observation of Space Planets, Division of Observation of Electromagnetic Waves, Division of Theory of Space Planets, Division of R&D for Ultra-small Planetary Probes, where researches are conducted superseding restrictions of each department.

Research and Development for Ultra-small Planetary Probes

To develop technology required for low-cost ultra-small space probes and satellites with cutting-edge performance, and to prove their feasibility

Observation of Electromagnetic Waves

To conduct research on observational structures of galaxies using visible light, infrared, and radio waves, and to perform cosmological research based on the above observation

Theory of
Space Planets

To clarify various interactions in outer space and evolution of galaxies and other astronomical objects based on theoretical analysis and computer simulations

Observation of Space Planets

To elucidate the origin and evolution of the solar system through investigation of the planetary environment of celestial objects with solid surface layer
