We are now hearing a lot of news about space development by private companies, such as the development of giant spaceships and space travel. As space exploration progresses, it may lead to the discovery of new resources and life forms, and if we actually go to space and live there, we will need various space-related things such as transportation, education, and fashion.

The unknown realm of space is full of unseen possibilities. At this event, 100BANCH's space-related projects and experts will come together to discuss why they are fascinated by space and the possibilities that lie ahead.
