抄録

Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) group undertake student-led development of small-satellite. Recently a number of 1kg class pico-satellites like our "CUTE-I" which has been successfully launched in 2003, are being launched by universities all over the world. However the size of pico-sized satellite is pointed out that it is too small to carry out the mission we really desire.
