The Science Hello Kitty Project – (part of the effort to bring the ILC in Japan)

The Advanced Accelerator Association Promoting Science and Technology (AAA) has been developing many activities to promote the ILC and its construction to more people in Japan. One of those projects is the “Science Hello Kitty project.”

The concepts of fundamental particle physics can be a bit difficult to grasp, so the AAA has teamed up with beloved character Hello Kitty to increase interest in the subject! They plan to release various science-themed Hello Kitty products throughout Japan and the rest of the world.

The Iwate Prefecture ILC Promotion Council is supporting this project by having these goods available for purchase within Iwate Prefecture. Scroll further to learn more about what’s available and where you can get it.
