JAMSS continues to explore new frontiers.
JAMSS’s first business area is providing a broad range of technical services for the operation and utilization of ISS (International Space Station)/ JEM (Japanese Experiment Module”Kibo”); these include ground-based preparations, training, verification, on-orbit operations and return of the benefits to society. JAMSS also provides operations support for the HTV (H-IITransfer Vehicle), which delivers vital cargo and payloads to the ISS.
The second business area is to ensure safe development and operation of space systems and payloads.
JAMSS conducts technical evaluations of the the safety, reliability and maintainability of all Japanese equipment and payloads being transported to the ISS.
The third business area is the utilization of satellites. JAMSS develops and validates new methods of utilizing satellites in order to enrich the lifestyles of humanity and to protect from disasters and other potential problems.
The fourth business area is space business development, primarily promoting the use of space by the private sector. JAMSS is pursuing completely new methods of exploiting space in a manner that enables the carefree participation of industry and private citizens.
Finally, JAMSS continues to develop and refine the technologies, knowhow and ideas indispensible for exploiting outer space and realizing deep-space exploration to the moon, Mars and beyond.
