Low-budget geostationary internet satellite provider, Astranus, has reported the unfortunate power failure of its first 'Arcturus.'
, an unexpected issue with a supplier's component on the solar array drive assembly of the satellite, explained Astranis. According to an update shared by Astranis co-founder John Gedmark on Friday, this assembly rotates the solar arrays to keep them directed towards the Sun, ensuring continuous power supply for the spacecraft.
"The Astranis engineering team has been doing an incredible job working around the clock to troubleshoot the issue," Gedmark said. "We have now reproduced the problem on the ground in a vacuum chamber, zeroed in on the exact source of the failure, and know how to fix it for future spacecraft. Because this failure occurred within the internal workings of a component supplied by an external vendor, we’re not in a position to go into the full technical details," he added.
A vendor-supplied component for our Arcturus satellite has had an anomaly, so we'll have to delay starting service in Alaska and repurpose the satellite for secondary missions. All Astranis-designed hardware on the spacecraft works perfectly.
