| Abstract |
SDS is a JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) program initiated in the spring of 2006. The overall objective is to demonstrate on small platforms new technologies in JAXA's R&D (Research & Development) activities.
The various SDS missions are selected for parts/components level, system/subsystem level, and mission-concept level, based on importance and urgency in JAXA's satellite technology roadmap. The development of the SDS-series satellites will be a collaborative effort of small and medium sized space companies and JAXA, keeping essential design authority and technologies to be selected for demonstrations by JAXA.
