Designed to meet the power needs of our Halo Hall-effect thruster, ExoTerra’s fold-out flexible solar arrays are the largest and highest specific power solar arrays available for CubeSats.

The power level of the array can be tailored by increasing or decreasing the quantity of blanket panels, allowing them to be scaled between 100-150 W of power at beginning of life while using less than 0.85U total stowed volume. The full-scale array has a measured specific power of 145 W/kg, providing a lightweight, highly compact power source capable of driving not only Hall-effect thrusters but high-power payloads and communications components. With more power on-board, your CubeSat can do more.

The design is currently undergoing qualification testing and is scheduled for a test flight in 2019.
