Message from CEO Akihide Manabe

In March 2021, we declared our commitment to sustainable space development, and in June of the same year, we defined our suborbital spaceplane under development with the principle of reusability and usage of clean fuel, as ECO ROCKET🄬. The global environment is no longer considered to be in a state of climate change but rather in a climate crisis, and today we are all aware of the need to achieve a carbon-neutral and decarbonized society. We are strongly committed to utilizing the technology that SPACE WALKER developed through space development, to help realize a decarbonized society here on earth.

SPACE WALKER is a university startup conducting research and development of winged reusable suborbital and orbital spaceplanes. The company also develops and sells composite tanks, utilizing space technology for both space and terrestrial industries. SPACE WALKER envisions sustainable commercial space transportation for all, as familiar as commercial air travel today.
