External Review
At the National Institute of Natural Sciences, National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, we regularly ask external intellectuals to review research, development, and performance, work results, etc. in each field/organization. The International External Review is the review performed by invited foreign and domestic intellectuals. These documents are the results of the review.
