KDDI aims to establish a moon-Earth communications network by 2028

TOKYOMay 31 (News On Japan) – As the space-related business sector grows rapidly, Japan’s second-largest telecommunications company KDDI has announced plans to enable mobile communications on the moon.

Hiroji Matsuda, Executive Vice President at KDDI, said: “The moon has become a very hot topic worldwide and in the future we want to develop a 5G or communications environment on the lunar surface.”

KDDI, which has announced its full entry into the space sector, plans to establish communications between the moon and Earth by 2028 to promote the development of the space industry and accelerate research and development in space.

In addition, KDDI plans to install base stations on the lunar surface by 2030, enabling a faster communications environment to remotely control exploration vehicles and easily send and receive data from the moon.

At the same time, KDDI plans to actively support startups engaged in space activities, with the aim of exploring business opportunities outside telecommunications.

The space market is expected to reach a value of approximately 150 trillion yen by 2040.
