2. Introduction of ISAS/JAXA
• As a national center of space science & engineering
research, ISAS carries out development (including vehicle
development), launch and in-orbit operation of space
science missions (scientific satellites, probes, sounding
rockets, balloons and instruments on ISS).
• As an inter-university research institute, these activities are
intimately carried out with universities and research
institutes inside and outside Japan.
• ISAS always seeks for international collaborations.
• Bottom-up process for mission selection: Space science
missions proposed by researchers are reviewed and
incubated by ISAS.
• ISAS is in a process of major reform for sustainable
excellence as a part of JAXA.

Sample Return
Science case
• Reveal the origin of a Mars moon (Phobos
or Deimos):
(A) Captured D-type asteroid, or
(B) piled fragments by a giant impact
• Only sample analysis will give the end to
the ever-lasting-argument.
• Be it (A) or (B), there are subsequent steps
in the sample analysis that will decipher
rich information on the planet.
• Being in close proximity of the planet, the
moons are showered by impact-ejected
ancient Mars surface material: A possible
channel to decipher the Mars surface
transition via sample analysis.

39. Summary
• We do complex international collaboration for
the sake of the maximum science.
• International collaboration is essential for JAXA-
led L and M class missions . ISAS/JAXA is eager to
participate in large missions led by foreign
agencies that JAXA cannot afford.
• Similar missions are usually proposed to other
space agencies almost simultaneously, meaning
redundant pursuit. Early and careful agency-level
dialog is important not to kill a science discipline
in one sector of the world and not to waste
young people’s efforts.
