Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has initiated an R&D project on nuclear forensics technology from 2011. This project includes development of prototype national nuclear forensics library (NNFL), and the JAEA attended to the first international table top exercise of NNFL "Galaxy Serpent" held by ITWG as a part of our NNFL development project. In this paper, outline and experiences of the JAEA investigation in the table top exercise are described and the lessons learned from the experiences were discussed. Brief current status of the NNFL development project at JAEA was also introduced in the present paper. The lessons from the experiences in the exercise will be effectively applied to the development of NNFL at JAEA.
