The developments of sounding rocket and CubeSat are a total game changer to the space program and it allows building space instruments to be more achievable and affordable. Therefore, it gives us a good opportunity to build a small cosmic ray detector which has capabilities to measure the flux, direction, and even energy of cosmic rays at the height above the limitation of balloon experiments, and it may open a new door for the cosmic ray physics. Compact Scintillator Array Detector (ComSAD) is dedicated for the sounding rocket mission of Taiwan’s National Space Organization. In paper, we present the idea, design, and performance of ComSAD which is also suitable for CubeSat missions in the future.
