Making space our home: technological challenges in Japan and France for a sustainable life in space
Concept
At a time when the return of human beings to the Moon is on the cards, there are still many technical, technological and scientific challenges to be met before mankind can lay claim to a proper life in space.
France and Japan, two major space powers, have a great deal to offer to meet these challenges. As part of this conference, institutional, academic and industrial players from both countries will be presenting their solutions and innovations, in terms of habitat, mobility, life-support to astronauts, health or food supply, which will make life in space a reality.
