Space Science Lecture Series — Week 4
Space Science Lecture Series -- Week 4
The forth week of the Space Science Lecture Series hosted by Sagamihara City Oonodai Community Center was held on November 25. This was the last of the four lectures, and its main content was the facility tour of JAXA Sagamihara Campus. Almost all registered participants gathered at our campus. All of us now know each others very well. This time, it was not my turn to guide them, and one of the OBs who are very familiar with the facilities organized the two-hour facility tour. The participants seem satisfied with it. In the exhibition hall, they saw models of rockets and satellites, like life-scale model of the asteroid explorer “Hayabusa” that resumed again from critical conditions and is on the way back to the Earth. They also participated in writing their messages to be sent to Venus onboard “Akatsuki”.

11月の水曜日に連続して行ってきた大野台公民館主催の宇宙科学講座。その4週目にあたる最終回はJAXA相模原キャンパスの見学会でした。今回も事前登録者のうちのほぼフルメンバーが参加。もうお互いにすっかり顔馴染みです。今回は、私は一言ご挨拶しただけで見学会には参加せず、見学案内担当のOBの方にお任せしましたが、2時間ほどの見学ツアー、満足してお帰りいただけたようです。展示室では、奇跡の復活を再び成し遂げ地球帰還のための軌道変換を再開した「はやぶさ」の実物大模型の見学のほか、「あかつき」キャンペーンコーナーでも多くの方に寄せ書きをいただきました。
