An in-orbit technology demo on future solar power technologies for commercial small satellites is brewing in Q4 2020. mPower Technology’s DragonSCALES solar cells have been integrated and tested on a next-gen Sparkwing In-Orbit Demonstrator flying with @Momentus’ Vigoride Transfer Vehicle.

The Sparkwing product sheet has been updated and is now available for download.

Adapting to the Covid19 situation, the Small Satellites Conference took place in the virtual form between the 1st and 6th of August. Our team joined many of the interesting sessions, and acquainted themselves with a lot of exciting developments and brilliant minds in the world of smallsats.
