Research abstract
This effort will demonstrate the ability to produce advanced, thermally reconfigurable components for small satellites. It will also investigate the applicability of ultrasonic consolidation fabricated materials to the space environment. This project represents one of the first efforts to use the ultrasonic consolidation technology to fabricate operationally respnisive, reconfigurable thermal panels for small satellites
