Founded in 2010, the International Journal of Aeronautical and Space Sciences (IJASS) has represented KSAS in introducing the academic excellence of Korean aerospace scientists and engineers to the world. Under the title of KSAS International Journal, it had been published twice a year before the publication frequency was increased to four times a year in 2010. To encourage the participation of international colleagues, its name was also changed to IJASS in 2009.
