Two decades ago, we began developing a new generation of folding mechanisms.
Rising to the energy challenge
Sunflake Solar Array Systems
An origami-inspired, elevated lunar solar array system that is compact, lightweight, stable, and re-deployable
NASA is returning humans to the Moon and establishing a long-term presence near the lunar South Pole via its Artemis missions. To accomplish this, a reliable, sustainable power source is required to support lunar habitats, rovers, and construction systems for future robotic and crewed missions.
Folditure Space Sunflake systems are lightweight, compact, robust, re-deployable Solar Power sources, developed with funding from NASA SBIR awards.
