November 11th marks a significant leap in space technology as mPower Technology unveils a high-volume production line for space solar modules in Conklin, New York. This automated facility, in partnership with Universal Instruments Corporation, will initially produce one megawatt of DragonSCALES solar modules annually, with plans to double that by 2026. The shift to automated production is crucial for the growing space economy, as it addresses the increasing demand for reliable and scalable energy sources for satellites and missions to the moon and Mars. The initial production will support a contract with Airbus, producing modules for over two hundred spacecraft. This development promises to make space power systems more affordable and quicker to deploy, marking a significant milestone for the space industry.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story.
