About this network
JAXAnet is the network of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the national space agency of Japan, run by its Information Systems Department.
What it's used for
- Networking for Japan's national space program: agency campuses and research centers, engineering and mission-support systems, and the movement of scientific and satellite data.
- A government research network serving the agency's own facilities, not a commercial ISP or host.
Notable
- A national space agency is an unusual kind of holder to find this low in the AS number space, and it is one of the few non-US organizations down here — the low numbers are dominated by American universities, federal agencies, and early corporate adopters.
- Registry records associate the ASN with JAXA's Tsukuba networking, matching the agency's Tsukuba Space Center, its principal center for spacecraft development and operations.
Interesting
- JAXA was formed in 2003 from the merger of Japan's three predecessor space organizations, so the agency as it exists today is younger than the AS number it uses.
