Informationen über NANOSAIL-D2
Establish ARC-MSFC collaborative relationship for future small satellite initiatives. Deploy a 10 m? solar sail leveraging work by MSFC approved under the SMD In-Space Propulsion Program. Demo Orbital Debris Mitigation technology ? drag sail. Ground Imaging to reduce spacecraft instrumentation. Add to flight experience ? ARC Bus "light" experience. The sail is made of an ultra-thin reflective polymer called CP-1. It is 7.5 microns thick and has a surface area of approximately 10 square meters. The sail is wound tightly around a central hub. When the sail deploys, four booms spring out to unfurl the sail and support its structure. The booms are each 2.2 meters long when fully deployed. The nine-pound sail subsystem was provided by ManTech/NeXolve in Huntsville, Ala.
