JAPAN MITSUBISHI RESEARCH INSTITUTE Miyabi Barth, St Edmund Hall, Third Year Undergraduate, MPhys Physics, Remote working Work Projects I was asked to write up a proposal regarding Japan's place in the new lunar explorations (I was assigned to the Frontier Technology division). I researched the current state of moon missions and the future regarding a possible moon base. I looked into technological gaps for a moon base. I had a daily meeting at 9 am with my mentors to discuss the work I did. I met several people from other teams as well to talk about working at MRI. On the last day, I presented my project and my proposal to the whole division. It was quite a lot of work for 2 weeks but all very interesting. Daily Life The working hours would differ quite a lot, when it came to the end it was a bit long but all worth it. This was mainly because the internship was short (only 2 weeks) so a lot of work had to be done to come up with the final presentation. I would go on breaks for walks. Lasting Impressions I enjoyed the internship very much! People were really nice and the research was interesting!
