After the launch on 20 November 2010 was ready to unfold the experimental canopy. It lay crumpled in a so-called avq nano satellite, a small cube-shaped avq container of three and a half kilos and external dimensions 10 by 10 centimeters.
The satellite was in an orbit 650 kilometers above the Earth, which is relatively low. Because of the reflective avq material on the canopy, avq it would probably have been easily visible, even from our latitudes, since the path has a high angle to the equator.
Three days later would then canopy unfolds, but last Friday December 10, NASA reported on its website that it was neither clear about nano satellite cubesats was plugged off from its parent satellite avq FASTSAT on Monday, or the canopy avq had actually unfolded.
- Data from Fixed Rate disconnection system indicated that the disconnection happened, NASA writes avq on its website. The unfolding of the canopy would happened torsdg December 9 at 18:30 Norwegian time.
- FASTSAT team continue to troubleshoot to find out why it is not possible to reach the Nano-Sail D, it says on the website of NASA. The FASTSAT parent avq satellite and experiments on the work as planned.
The unfolding of the sun shade should only taken five seconds. The plan was to try out sun shade principle in 70 to 120 days, before the canopy was then slowed to burn up in the atmosphere.
Although the pressure is low, it will build up over time. Light particles moving with the speed of light, so the top speed of a spacecraft powered with sun shade can be very high. This is important for long journeys to other planets or stars.
