Paper Abstract
This paper reviews the Japanese activity of the laser application in space. The features of lunar energy network system) are shown. The design target is to get an innovative energy transfer system using laser. This project consists of four phases; fundamental technology development, high power laser, energy transfer from space and lunar energy park concept. The recent results of LOTV (Laser Orbit Transfer Vehicle concept) by advanced space propulsion investigation committee are shown. The target is to realize the low cost space transportation system using laser ablation. Due to this LOTV network, the transportation cost can be reduced to less than one twenty-fifth of the current cost.
