Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW), a leader in space
infrastructure for the next generation space economy, today
announced it will develop and deliver Roll-Out Solar Array (ROSA)
wings for Thales Alenia Space’s Space Inspire* satellites, the
company’s newest product line of geostationary (GEO)
telecommunications satellites. A joint venture between Thales (67%)
and Leonardo (33%), Thales Alenia Space is a leading prime
manufacturer providing space solutions for telecommunications,
Earth observation, exploration, and navigation. The cooperation
between the two companies on this project was initiated last
year.
“Redwire is proud to be a trusted supplier for Thales Alenia
Space’s innovative Space Inspire satellite solution that will
provide unprecedented flexibility for the GEO telecommunications
market,” said Mike Gold, Redwire’s Chief Growth Officer.
“Leveraging unmatched innovation and a 100% on-orbit success rate,
Redwire’s ROSA technology has become the power solution of choice
for today’s most cutting-edge missions and platforms from LEO to
GEO and beyond.”
The ROSA wings that are being developed for the first Thales
Alenia Space’s Space Inspire satellites will measure approximately
80 feet long and provide >25 kW of power capability per
spacecraft, making them among the most robust solar arrays ever
used on a GEO satellite.
Redwire’s ROSA technology has an impressive track record of
reliability and successful on-orbit performance for a wide range of
civil and commercial missions including the International Space
Station, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test mission, and the
Maxar-built Power and Propulsion Element for the Artemis Lunar
Gateway.
*The development of Thales Alenia Space’s Space Inspire product
line is supported by the French national space agency CNES.
