SGAC Japan

Welcome to the national page of SGAC Japan! Japan has its own aerospace exploration agency (JAXA). Moreover, a lot of agencies related with the complicated field of space. Additionally, many new space efforts and ventures are emerging, involving young people. We have met many space colleagues in the world through SGAC activities, SGC, and other aerospace events. We hope to develop more real business relationships with them. Let’s challenge ourselves to open up commercial space access together with passion, enthusiasm, and strong will!

Visions of SGAC Japan

  1. Encourage more members from Japan to participate in SGC!
  2. Hold more space events in Japan like Yuri’s Night, World Space Week, etc.
  3. Invite SGAC members worldwide to visit Japan and host them.
  4. Participate on the SGTalk list and hold discussions with delegates from other countries.
  5. Report our activities in Japan to SGAC Executive Committee annually.
