Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In Japan, many pico, micro and nanosatellites were launched and to be launched in 2013-2014. Seven satellites (pico, nano and micro satellites) with core satellite of GPM were launched by H-IIA in Feb.28, 2014. Four microsatellites (UNIFORM,Rising-2, Sprout and Socrates)were launched with ALOS-2 by H-IIA in May 24, 2014, Hodoyoshi-3 and 4 were launched in June 19, 2014 by using Dnepr. Four microsatellites (Hodoyoshi-1,Chubusat-1, Tsubame and QSAT-EOS) with ASNARO will be launched in November by using Dnepr. Most of them are earth observation satellites using VHF, UHF, S, X and Ku bands. Various optical sensors mounted on these satellites are compared. It was found that relatively higher spatial resolution (ex.6-7m) and relatively wider swath width (ex. 25-28km) in 60-70kg class satellite Hodoyoshi-1 and Hodoyoshi-4 can be realized. Several components such as reaction wheel, ion engine, X band higher data rate transmitter, store and forward and rental space were also developed. Deep space mission Procyon with Hayabusa-2 will be launched in November 30, 2014. Satellite design contest is held every year since 1993. Some of microsatellites presented in the satellite contest were applied and launched after review by JAXA. Satellite design contest, ICSANE, nanosatellite symposium contribute to small satellite community in Japan and in the world. Most microsatellites are earth observation satellites and some of them are space research missions. In this paper, overview of pico, nano, micro satellites in Japan and future missions are mainly presented.
