Popup Arrays for Large Space-Borne Apertures
Oren S. Mizrahi, Austin Fikes, Alan Truong +3
Large apertures in space are critical for high-power and high-bandwidth applications spanning wireless power transfer (WPT) and communication, however progress on this front is stu…
A Lightweight Space-based Solar Power Generation and Transmission Satellite
Behrooz Abiri, Manan Arya, Florian Bohn +17
We propose a novel design for a lightweight, high-performance space-based solar power array combined with power beaming capability for operation in geosynchronous orbit and transmi…
Lightweight Carbon Fiber Mirrors for Solar Concentrator Applications
Nina Vaidya, Michael D. Kelzenberg, Pilar Espinet-González +7
Lightweight parabolic mirrors for solar concentrators have been fabricated using carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and a nanometer scale optical surface smoothing technique. T…
Space-quality data from balloon-borne telescopes: the High Altitude Lensing Observatory (HALO)
Jason Rhodes, Benjamin Dobke, Jeffrey Booth +36
We present a method for attaining sub-arcsecond pointing stability during sub- orbital balloon flights, as designed for in the High Altitude Lensing Observatory (HALO) concept. The…
