SPACE VEHICLE HIGHLIGHT
The Relativity Mission (GP-B) solar array panel coupons were successfully
release tested in LMMS building 251 and verification was obtained from the
solar array product center that the solar cells performed nominally after
the three design releases. This test verifies the release dynamics do not
affect cell performance.
