In order to study the generation mechanism of lightning-associated transient luminous events (TLEs) and the relationship between lightning and TLEs, we will carry out the lightning and TLE observation at Exposed Facility of Japanese Experiment Module (JEM-EF) of International Space Station (ISS). In this mission named JEM-GLIMS (Global Lightning and sprlte MeasurementS on JEM-EF) two kinds of optical instruments and two sets of radio receivers will be integrated into the Multi mission Consolidated Equipment (MCE) which is the bus system and will be installed at JEM-EF finally. For the development of the GLIMS instruments, mechanical FEM analysis and thermal analysis are the important tasks to be performed by the mission team. Science group of the GLIMS mission has contacted to professors who belong to the department of engineering in an university and are an expert of the mechanical and thermal analysis. By their tremendous cooperation, GLIMS mission could pass the numerous reviews. Though many science mission using very small satellite will be planned in near future, strong mutual cooperation between science group and engineering group is important.
