Japanese experiments

Various experiments are conducted aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The Japanese experiments are shown here.

Japanese experiments as Precursor for the Utilization of Japanese Experiment Module "Kibo"

JAXA currently performs Space Experiment projects onboard the U.S. Lab and the Russian Service Module as well as in the Space Shuttle in order to develop skills required for operation and utilization of the future ISS Japanese Experiments Module "Kibo".

Enrich our industries and lives in the 21st century by utilizing "Kibo"

Various experiments will be conducted aboard the International Space Station, which will be constructed on orbit 400 kilometers above the Earth, by utilizing space environments. These environments include microgravity, space radiation, a vast field of view, high vacuum, and abundant solar energy, that are completely different from the environments on the Earth. The results obtained from these experiments are expected to enrich our industries and lives in the 21st century. In the Japanese Experiment Module "Kibo" various experiments will also be conducted by utilizing its Pressurized Module and Exposed Facility.
Kibo' s experiments under development will be presented at here.
