Background, Purpose, and Project Achievements

Throughout the human history people have been watching the sky and wondering about their existence in the universe. Now the human activities are expanding into space. Accordingly the relationship between the humanity and the universe is entering the new stage. The unprecedented and extremely different environment in space will not only bring the new problems but also unveil the unknown nature of human beings and their society. In the era when humans are expanding their activities out of the Earth, space is the place to look at for those who are eager to explore the wonder of human existence. In this project we bring the researchers from diverse fields together to encourage the pioneering research projects about the humanities in space through interdisciplinary collaborations.

Future Prospects

We will keep challenging something new, something fan, involving young researchers and students.
