Sierra Space’s solar tech powers LizzieSat satellite

Sierra Space, a commercial space and defense technology company, has provided cutting-edge solar technology for Sidus Space’s LizzieSat satellite, which launched on SpaceX’s Transporter-10 Rideshare mission on March 4. Sierra Space delivered eight solar panels and a top plate ahead of schedule, completing the process in 49 days. The solar panels, tailored to LizzieSat’s specifications, feature high-density cells mounted onto substrates crafted by Sierra Space engineers. Using advanced manufacturing techniques, Sierra Space ensures higher power density and reduced lead times. Sidus Space’s satellite is anticipated to revolutionize data collection with its Space Platform with a Purpose and FeatherEdge AI integration, catering to military and commercial sectors.
