Established in May 1990.

Since its foundation in 1990, Japan Manned Space Systems Corporation (JAMSS) has been a focal point as a systems integrator of development, operations and utilization of the Japanese Experiment Module (JEM), which is called “Kibo”. Kibo is part of the International Space Station (ISS) that was built by 15 nations as a multi-national cooperative program. The corporate mission is to develop and establish manned space technologies in Japan. Toward this goal, JAMSS initially recruited the best talents from 60 leading companies of Japan.

1. Operation and utilization support of JEM(Japanese Experiment module ”Kibo”) / ISS(International Space Station)
2. Safety and Product Assurance of space systems.
3. Utilization of satellites (such as earth observation, communication 
and navigation satellites) 
4. Promotion of space commercial utilization.

The Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's center for human spaceflight training, research and flight control. The center consists of a complex of 100 buildings constructed on 1,620 acres (656 ha) in Houston, Texas. Johnson Space Center is home to the United States astronaut corps and is responsible for training astronauts from both the U.S. and its international partners. It is often popularly referred to by its central function during missions, Mission Control.

The center, originally known as the Manned Spacecraft Center, grew out of the Space Task Group formed soon after the creation of NASA to co-ordinate the US manned spaceflight program. A new facility was constructed on land donated by Rice University and opened in 1963. On February 19, 1973, the center was renamed in honor of the late U.S. president and Texas native, Lyndon B. Johnson. JSC is one of ten major NASA field centers.
