Michibiki No 6 was launched in February this year. The agency ultimately plans to have 11 geolocation satellites orbiting the Earth to ensure that the system has redundancy in the event of technical problems, and to expand coverage.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency is assessing the situation and investigating the cause of the second-stage engine’s premature cut-off that occurred shortly after lift-off from the Tanegashima Space Centre in Kagoshima prefecture. Placed on multiple orbital planes, the Quasi-Zenith Satellite System will enable Japan to operate highly accurate positioning services vital for smartphones and vehicle navigation, covering close to 100 per cent of Japan, including urban canyons and mountain terrain, according to the agency.

Nissan’s U.S. plants are currently producing 600,000 vehicles annually but have capacity for one million, so Meunier wants to increase production. He also plans to bring back the Xterra, a rugged off-road vehicle that represents “the perfect combination of what Nissan is about—the affordability, the fun and the durability,” he said.

But it will take a lot more than that to reverse Nissan’s slide that began nearly a decade ago. Nissan reported its fifth-straight quarterly net loss last month and it is closing seven of its 17 factories globally and cutting 20,000 jobs. The automaker has struggled to find direction since the arrest of its longtime chief executive, Carlos Ghosn, in 2018.
