Earth orbiting, sun following satellite

摘要

The includes a reduced number of solar panels with various sides used for different purposes. Satellite sides are available for various instruments, such as aerials, drive units, adaptors etc.. The free sides without solar cells can be used for waste heat radiation.The satellite comprises simple accommodation of foldable solar panels without complex aligning and follower mechanisms. It uses a gravity gradient stabilisation for the yaw and pitch axes. The panel aligning is carried out by magnetic coils.
