We are pleased to announce that a workshop on future planetary exploration will be held on Thursday, September 24, 2026, at X-NIHONBASHI TOWER in Tokyo.
This workshop aims to bring together the perspectives of both science and engineering to develop ideas for future missions. Since 2020, we have held six workshops, collaborated with the Planetary Symposium at Tohoku University, and have deepened discussions on the Moon, Mars, Venus, small bodies, outer planets, and engineering topics. This year, in addition to the Mars and Venus sessions that were requested by the community, we are planning sessions on small-body exploration (NGSR) and energy technologies for future outer planet exploration.
The workshop will be held in a hybrid format: both onsite at X-NIHONBASHI TOWER and online via Zoom. A social networking party will be held after the workshop.
Details on the program and registration will be announced soon. We look forward to your participation.
