Based on the fact that the three organizations (NASDA, ISAS and NAL) had played their unique role in their respective areas prior to their merger into JAXA, the new integrated space agency was expected to bring about a synergetic effect, or the idea of multiplication, by stimulating and competing with each other. In addition, the areas of “space” and “aviation” are two major regions for us to cover. The above ideas are expressed by one word, “Aerospace.” |
