Abstract

For promoting Space Activities, it is important to analyze "quantitatively" how much a public investment for space activities makes its ripple effects. Also, JAXA is required to explain its effects to public.

We analyzed some analytical methods for ripple effects widely, from each point of   specific characteristics, applicable fields, application possibilities, with the study group including experts. As a result of this study, we developed a chart of systematization for Ripple Effects of Space Activities, which includes analytical methods around "economic aspect" (Direct effects from R \& D / Market of Utilization), "technological aspect" (Indirect Effects of Technology Program / Spin-off) and "social aspect" (Contribution to every day’s life / Contribution to Mentality).

We introduce this chart of systematization for ripple effects of space activities.
