Scientific paper
Japan Spaceguard Association (JSGA) carries out observations of asteroids and space debris at Bisei Spaceguard Center (BSGC) in Japan. Since the observations produce a lot of image data, we are considering to use them for education. One of the attempts is that we distribute the image data to school children and let them find asteroids. In order to find asteroids we developed software called "Asteroid Catcher B-612". This software is easy enough for children to handle. We are now distributing this software and image data to anybody who is interested in searching asteroids. We will supply image data by our web site, and then children can access much more recent data and can try to find asteroids. We call this next project "Spaceguard Detective Agency".
