- DCubed forged an agreement with Italian space logistics firm D-Orbit to launch the demonstration payload in the fourth quarter of 2023.
- D-Orbit’s ION will maneuver to deploy cubesats in their desired locations. “After this, we can operate the DCubed payload and record the video for them,” said Renato Panesi, D-Orbit founder and chief commercial officer.
DCUBED and Solestial’s new solar array, 2023-11-16.
- Using DCUBED’s in-space manufactured back structure and Solestial’s thin and flexible silicon solar blanket. The back structure element, essentially the support structure for the solar array, will be built in-space when deployed.
- DCUBED and Solestial will perform an in-orbit demonstration of the solar array in the second half of next year, with a 1kW solar array product ready in 2025 and a 10kW version available in 2026.
