Description

<p>Opterus Research and Development, Inc. proposes to develop solar array blanket technologies suitable for solar electric propulsion (SEP) missions. The technologies will address NASA&rsquo;s needs for increased power, modularity to reduce cost, high voltage operation, and operation in a SEP environment. The work will further enable high reliability and compact stowage in a design that&nbsp;provides sufficient stiffness to minimize adverse spacecraft dynamics issues.&nbsp;</p>
