抄録（英）
At Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the Super Low Altitude Test Satellite (SLATS) has lately been under development in order to extend space utilization into extremely low earth orbits. Because of the increase of aerodynamic forces acting on the satellite along with the decrease of altitude, ion engines will be used for the purpose of maintaining the altitude and attitude of the satellite. In this work, we develop aerodynamic database for orbital altitudes from 550km to 150km by carry out free-molecular and direct simulation Monte Carlo computations for the prediction of satellite duration and the operation of altitude and attitude control. Also, we carry out surface accommodation measurements in hypersonic rarefied wind tunnel at JAXA in order to improve the accuracy of aerodynamic prediction.
