I thought that it was time to start a new thread devoted to the JUNO Jupiter
Orbiter mission. This New Frontiers Mission #2 seems to be a "stealth" project with little information available on the Web. In fact, the official NASA JUNO web site is quite pitiful. It contains the minimal amount of information on what seems to be an intriguing mission, in terms of both science and engineering. Does the UMSF community have information on this mission that has not been widely seen before? Another Phil |

20% efficiency is conservative, the state of the art is now ~41%. The panels on the MER's were around 23% so I'd assume that the best space rated arrays are substantially better than that now.

Does anyone know what the current space rated solar panels are at? The Boeing press release is a laboratory result for Earth surface applications. Does rating panels for space result in higher or lower efficiency? |
