“JAXA’s technology roadmap” identifies the JAXA’s mid and long-term R&D plan for each technology disciplines.

•Approximately 200 individual disciplines are identified.•Long-term (about 20 years) future technology trend prediction is conducted for each technology•Specific plans for the next 10 years are shown to apply the ongoing R&D to programs.

All the disciplinary engineering groups conduct R&D activities based upon the technology roadmap.

Basic Space Plan for Space Policyestablished on 2. June. 2009 by the Strategic head quarters for space

development

Six Basic Pillars

1.Realization of a secure, pleasant and affluent society utilizing space

2. Enhancement of national security utilizing space

3. Promotion of space diplomacy

4. Creation of vigorous future by promoting R&D of the forefront areas.

5. Fostering strategic industries for the 21st century

6. Consideration of Environment

JAXA’s approaches to EEE Parts

• Domestic production of strategic space parts (highly functional and highly integrated parts for maintaining flexibility)

• Maintain second source• Promote smart buy• Maintain universal passive parts (maintain

immediacy and flexibility)• Advanced parts technology development

(activities for achieving technical breakthrough)
