Examples of past activities

In the Space Miyakogusa Project, 981 children from 31 schools across Japan studied the changes that appeared in Miyakogusa (Fabaceae) that went to space for two years, and presented their findings at a research presentation. The results were published 60 times in the media.

 

The Space Soybean Project held a "Soybean Awarding Ceremony" in which children handed over soybeans to JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) to be flown into space, and a "Soybean Sowing Ceremony" to learn how to grow soybeans. The number of events was 49, with 3,420 participants and 96 media exposures.

 

The Space Soybean Project, together with Miyasaka Brewery Co., Ltd. has developed the "Miko Chan's Science Series Master Craftsman's Miso Preparation Kit" and began presenting it on October 19, 2010. Through this kit, the project aims to improve soybean self-sufficiency and activate science education at home.
