A 1U CubeSat spacecraft with the following missions.

1. APRS KASHIWA has the APRS function of 145.825MHz. When the satellite receives an APRS query from a ground amateur station, it returns an ACK signal. The satellite logs the call sign and reception time of the received query from an amateur station, and log data is transmitted from the satellite to the ground station by UHF downlink. The log downlinked to the ground station will be published on the website. The APRS operation period will be from one week after orbit insertion until deorbit, almost one and half year. APRS operation of KASHIWA will cover all continent every month.

2.? MoG? (Music of Geomagnetic) KASHIWA transmits VHF analog FM signal containing the call sign as audio tone Morse code at first and then the analog audio sound generated from geomagnetic data to amateurs. Geomagnetic field observation data will also be transmitted in the data by UHF transceiver.

1. Camera Missions KASHIWA has two cameras onboard.
