Integrating Space–Earth Environmental Science, History, and Archaeology:

We are establishing a transdisciplinary network that links space–earth environmental science with the humanities and social sciences. The network aims to assess the impact of extreme solar storms on modern civilization and promote new developments in history and archaeology based on new and more accurate dating. It also seeks to contribute to the formation of a sustainable, development-oriented society that extends into space, while preparing for space-related hazards, as well as earthquakes and volcanic disasters. Additionally, the network focuses on developing the next generation of international young researchers.
