Yuta Komiya is a satellite engineer. He was born in Kochi in 1986, and raised in Saitama. During his childhood, Komiya once watched a documentary program about Apollo 13, and he came to admire the NASA Flight Director, Gene Kranz. After that, he developed a strong interest in space program development.

He attended Tokyo Institute of Technology, where he was heavily involved in developing micro satellites. At the end of 2011, just before graduation, while he was intensely investigating satellite development and writing his thesis, he found a passion for adult outreach activities.

Since then, outside of his work, he has overseen the 'Komiya Rocket Club', an "Adult Hangout" that launches model rockets along the Tama River.

1986年高知生まれ、埼玉育ち。幼いころ、たまたまアポロ13号のドキュメンタリー番組に出てきた、ジーン・クランツに憧れて宇宙開発を志す。ちなみに白いベストは持っていない。
以来、宇宙と関わる進路を選択し続け、東工大にて超小型人工衛星の研究開発に関わる。大学院卒業間際の2011年末、多忙を極める衛星開発と論文執筆のストレスが原動力となり、モデルロケットを使った大人向けアウトリーチ活動に目覚める。
以来現在に至るまで、本職の傍ら、「大人の本気の遊び場」をコンセプトに、多摩川沿いでモデルロケット教室"Komiya Rocket Club"を定期的に開催している。

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
