Kyoto’s Daigoji Temple and Terra Space inc., a satellite developer, have teamed up to launch an ultrasmall satellite the size of a jewelry box that will orbit around Earth. The temple, named Jotenin Gounji Temple, will be placed inside the satellite along with a small Buddha statue and mandala paintings, Terra Space said.
Gounji Temple will be accessible to people on Earth. Daigoji Temple priests will remotely hold “space services” promoting peace and humanity from the Kyoto temple for those who apply online, and their prayers will be sent to the space temple to be saved in its memory.
