Space Education by JAXA - Fostering Young Hearts and Minds -

The JAXA Space Education Center was founded in 2005 to promote space science across Japan. Space education has just begun to take off across the nation, and the Center is playing a key role. The Space Education Center teaches children about space directly, and also supports space education in schools and trains teachers. We spoke to some of JAXA's collaborators - a schoolteacher, people from social organizations that promote education, and the private sector - about the significance and attraction of space education.
