The local government in Ibaraki gave us free reign for three days to film whatever places we wanted, and our second stop was Science Square Tsukuba, a showcase of the cutting edge technologies being researched at AIST (The National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology). There were A LOT of displays! We mainly filmed the areas that were somewhat interactive to make for a more engaging video, but there was a lot of really interesting information on what technologies are being developed right now! There's information in English on touchscreens next to all the displays and it is not dumbed down for anyone! I super recommend this center if you love science and technology.

This is part of Tsukuba Science City, which is a planned city in Japan that aggregates scientific academies, research institutions, museums, and even JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency--Japan's version of NASA). It's right next to the geology museum, and a few blocks away is Tsukuba Expo Center, the site of the 1985 Science Exposition. It now hosts Japan's largest observatory and planetarium. And right near that is the Tsukuba Space Center, one of Tsukuba's most popular attractions. If you're into science and technology at all, Tsukuba Science City is a must!!
