JASMINE is a satellite mission to perform infrared astrometric observations in the direction of the Galactic nuclear bulge. The telescope has a circular primary mirror of about 40 cm diameter. JASMINE uses the infrared Hw-band, whose wavelength extends from 1.1 micron to 1.6 micron (TBD). JASMINE will determine positions and parallaxes accurate to between 25 μas and 125 μas, depending mainly on the star magnitude. The magnitude range of the stars is planned to be between 9.5 and 14.5 magnitude. The precision of the proper motions is expected to be between 25 μas per year and 125 μas per year. The number of stars to be downloaded to the ground is expected to be about 10,000 with the magnitudes mentioned above with high frequency. More than 100,000 fainter stars will be observed, and their data sent to the ground, with a lower frequency. This mission is unique in that the same astronomical object can be observed frequently, and observation will be performed in the near-infrared band, in which the effect of absorption by dust is weak. JASMINE (“Small-JASMINE mission”)was selected by ISAS/JAXA (Institute of Space and Astronautical Science/the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) in May 2019 for the JAXA Competitive Middle-Class Science Missions No.3. At the present, according to the progress schedule in the Space Basic Plan determined by Japanese government in December 2021, the launch of JASMINE is scheduled for 2028. After nominal 3 years of operation, the final catalog will be released in around 2033. We are promoting the JASMINE mission with the aim of gradually improving the development stage at JAXA. This mission will help to achieve revolutionary breakthroughs in astronomy and basic physics, including the formation history of the Galactic nuclear bulge (Galactic Center Archeology) and the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center etc. Although the Galactic center region covers only a small part of the sky, in terms of understanding our Galaxy’s structure, and its formation and evolution, it is particularly important region because stars of various ages have different spatial distributions and motions according to their ages in this region. It’s like having different strata in geology. I will talk about the brief overview and recent progress of the JASMINE mission.
