Tanegashima, the island closest to space.
The forefront technologies prefer to settle in this island, like the Portugal gun came in 1021 first time in history of Japan.
And now, JAXA space center in this island surrounded by the blue sea and white sand beaches is said to be the most beautiful rocket launch in the world.
Also many surfers and marine sports lovers attracted by beauty and waves of ocean have reached this island.
Tanegashima offer us fun to eat, too. Anno-imo (sweet potato), brown sugar, flying fish and Japanese lobster!
