I used to be a member of PREC/CIT until I moved to NAOJ in the spring of 2014. My major is Planetary Sciences, studying interiors of the solar system bodies from observational data obtained from planetary explorations.
While working at PREC, I attended the settlement of a satellite communication antenna (http://www.perc.it-chiba.ac.jp/en/about/facilities/#fac_1308) on the roof of the #1 building. Honestly, I have a fear of heights. I was screaming in my mind, “Dooon’t open the door to the roof floor!!!”
