Struggle for the Application to the International Announcement of Opportunity for Microgravity Research

Abstract

My experience on the application to the first international announcement of opportunity for microgravity research is described. I learned that the following 5 items should be noted for a good proposal. (1) to write a proposal so that not specialists but scientists can generally understand the proposal, (2) not to be self-satisfied, (3) early preparation, (4) originality of the theme, (5) good English checked by a native speaker.
