Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Tohoku University is now developing the 50-kg microsatellite named SPRITE-SAT, and this is launched by Japanese H-IIA rocket as a piggy-back satellite in the beginning of 2009. The SPRITE-SAT observes one of transient luminous events (TLEs) in the middle and upper atmosphere, called "sprites", and terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs). The mission of SPRITE-SAT is to solve the generation mechanism of these events. The satellite has a new-model deployable mast, and the bottom panel loading almost mission instruments is pointing to the earth by the gravity gradient torque. In this paper, missions and the satellite system are explained.
