A rocket is located at the gate to JAXA.
JAXA annual open-house event for Science and Technology Week was held at the Tsukuba Space Center on April 21, 2012. Its catch phrase is: “Come to TKSC! The place that is the closest to space” Please visit our facility with your friends and families.
My family and I visited the event! So many people gathered at this hot opportunity!! Though we couldn’t try plastic-botttle rocket making and treasure hunting using the MICHIBIKI satellite & GPS, we really enjoyed the lectures by astronaut Hoshide and JAXA employee Uchiyama (Kounotori, HTV). Also, the exhibition of space solar power system was interesting even for my kids. 3D movie conveyed the sensation of extravehicular activities in space.
The series of events will go on at other facilities. The schedule can be checked here: http://www.jaxa.jp/topics/2012/04_e.html
