Foundation of International Education and ResearchCenter for Planetary Science
Simulation

Planetary science is an emerging
interdisciplinary field, combining
aspects of astronomy, geology,meteorology, biology, etc., with
its ultimate goal to understandour existence in the universe

Experiments

Many methods/subjects...

Observation

It is impossible for the individual
researcher to integrate knowledge of
specialized various disciplines into
one unified picture from galaxies
through
habitable
planets
toourselves

How to develop a unified picture?
Our approach: Founding the new center which...
- promotes international interactions between planetary scientists- fosters the next-generation leaders with a broad perspective- provides the up-to-date and comprehensive knowledge online

Social Interchange CG
We give the public a better understanding ofPlanetary science and CPS’s principle throughthe following promotion of social interaction:A) Organizing meetings with many influential
businessmen.
B) Conducting the Japanese writing course andEnglish presentation training course.
C) Giving the popular events on Planetary Scienceand training presentation skills for young
scientists through the utilization of publiclectures
