In order to detect attitude for spinning rocket we have developed a sun aspect sensor (RSAS) with a field of view of 128 degree and resolution of 0.5 degree. Furthermore, we have developed the attitude determination system using data of sun sensor and geomagnetic aspect sensor on the ground. The sun sensor was flight tested with ISAS rocket (M-V-8) on 23rd February 2006. Purposes of the test were environmental test (vibration shock etc.) during launching. It was found the sun sensor had no trouble during flight and able to determine attitude for spinning rocket.
