The JSASS Awards consist of Best Paper Award, Technology Award, and Young Researcher Award for members under 35 years old. JSASS provided nomination guidelines in the June 2013 issue of Aeronautical and Space Sciences Japan and on the JSASS website, and nominations received by 30 August 2013 were reviewed strictly and carefully by each award selection committee. The committees recommended three recipients for Technology Award [two for Basic Technology Category and one for Project Category], and two recipients for Young Researcher Award. The committee for Best Paper Award did not recommend any recipient. The committee recommendations were submitted to the JSASS Board of Directors and endorsed at the 488th Board of Directors Meeting on 10 January 2014. The JSASS would like to announce all of our members this year’s awards recipients. Also, these awards will be presented with an extra prize at the JSASS Annual General Meeting to be held in April 2014. The details of the review will be provided in the May 2014 issue of Aeronautical and Space Sciences Japan.
