The Spinning solar sail is expected to be a future space exploration system. Considering the dynamic deformation of the sail membrane is an indispensable factor in designing the spacecraft. But the mathematical model of the sail membrane is complex. Computational analysis is difficult and time consuming. Therefore this has a negative impact on simulation, design and control problems. The model reduction technique is required to shorten the design period. It is a necessary step in order to put the gossamer structure to practical use. In this presentation, the dynamic property of the square type spinning solar sail is revealed, and the requirements for constructing a reduction model are revealed. Then, empirical model reduction techniques are applied to gossamer structures, and the issue of constructing a low-order model is summarized.

The “Space Seeds for Asian Future (SSAF)” program is one of the activities of the “Kibo-ABC” initiative under the Asia-Pacific Regional Space Agency Forum (APRSAF). The program intends to promote understanding, and to give regional space agencies experience in the utilization of the Japanese Experiment Module, “Kibo”, of the International Space Station (ISS). It also aims to provide young people in the Asia-Pacific region with opportunities to learn about leading edge sciences through their participations in experiments under peculiar space conditions, including microgravity. Students from Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam participated in the SSAF2010-2011 program. As part of this program seeds from each of these nations were flown to the ISS and kept in the Kibo Module. These seeds were then returned to Earth where they were germinated and compared to control seed not flown in space. This experiment involved researchers, students and the general public. In the SSAF2013 program, there are plans to cultivate seeds indigenous to Asia in the Kibo/ISS facilities. The plan is to send Azuki bean (Vigna angularis) to Kibo, and observe the growth of their seedlings under dark conditions. Members of the Kibo-ABC initiative are collaborating in the preparation of the seed germination testing procedures, following which many people, including children, students and researchers, are expected to participate in the program.

Since the effective satellite-based education and outreach methods has not been clarified so far, we researched satellites in the world and their activities in order to extract essential issues from the viewpoints of successful education and outreach. As the results, we found the following three key points are all required for successful space education and outreach with satellites; "No limit type": the satellite everyone can use, "Participation type": the satellite users can participate in its mission, and "Interaction type": the satellite users can interact each other. Furthermore, as the example to fulfill these key points, we introduce CubeSats, ITF-1 and ITF-2 developed by University of Tsukuba YUI Project, with their missions and activities related with space education and outreach.

In context of the Engineering Design Education, actual lunar exploration mission “Unprecedented Zipangu Underworld of the Moon Exploration (UZUME) project” has strong potential to be applied to Project Based Learning (PBL) program in the Engineering Design Education. In this paper, we introduce student's experience for a conceptual design of lunar exploration mission and discuss its educational effectiveness. Through participation to the Satellite Design Contest, it is confirmed that students can acquire integrated ability of engineering subjects and that process of proposal is quite consistent with concept of the Engineering Design Education. In particular, merging of many engineering subjects and long-term group work are quite effective to cultivate student's engineering design abilities.
