JAXA Vision 　 Space exploration and utilization for the next 20 yearsSpace exploration and utilization for the next 20 years

Develop launch vehicles and satellites with the highest reliability and world class capability, contributing to the realization of a secure and prosperous society.

Promote “top science” in the field of space science while preparing for Japan’s own human space activities and the utilization of the Moon.

Conduct flight demonstration of a prototype hypersonic vehicle with the cruising speed at Mach 5.

With all of the above activities, contribute to turning the aerospace industry into a key industry.
