Abstract

Effective space outreach activities are needed to expand people's support for space development as well as to promote people's understanding for space. University Space Engineering Consortium (UNISEC) established in 2002 has been exploring the effective ways to pursue outreach activities. This paper describes attempts of these outreach activities made by students, and examines the pros and cons from an educational and "public interest" point of view, followed by discussion on promising scenarios with future vision.
