First RECONSO CubeSat Flight Solar Panel Completed

Several students working for Prof. Holzinger recently finished fabricating the first 1U flight panel for the RECONSO 6U CubeSat. These dedicated students have spent countless hours carefully planning the procedures, procuring correct components, and assembling the hardware. RECONSO is scheduled for Launch in April, 2018, and will passively detect and track on-orbit space debris with its on-board electro-optical sensor.

Congratulations on a job well done! Particular thanks (in alphabetical order) to Van Barnet, Adam Jackson, Keenan Nicholson, Norris Nicholson, Andrew Smith, Will Stock, and Eric Stoker-Spirt.

Now, for those pesky 3U and 6U panels...
