Micro/Nano/Pico Satellite: Innovations in Architecture, Technologies and Education


About the Conference
The Nano-Satellite Symposium has been a part of the “Hodoyoshi Project”, which was granted by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) in the “Funding Program for World-Leading Innovative R&D on Science and Technology (FIRST Program)” initiated by the Council for Science and Technology Policy (CSTP) of Cabinet Office, Government of Japan (JSPS Official site).
