Final Pair of Redwire ROSA Wings Launch to the ISS, Completing Historic Power Modernization Effort
Redwire (RDW) announced that its fourth and final pair of solar array wings will launch to the International Space Station.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
Each ROSA wing provides 20+ kW of power for over 10 years once deployed, and all eight ROSA wings combined will provide more than 160 kW. Since installation on the station, the six currently deployed wings have contributed toward extended operation of the orbiting lab to 2030.
“We are very proud at Redwire to power the present and future of the International Space, Station which continues to serve as the pinnacle of global human spaceflight,” said Mike Gold, President of Redwire Space. “The ROSA program demonstrates the extraordinary benefits of public-private partnerships to create new technologies that not only enable flagship NASA missions, but have transitioned to support a wide variety of commercial programs. We’re grateful to our customer, Boeing, for their support of Redwire and the development of the innovative ROSA technology, which can now be used for future commercial space stations as well as providing power on the surface of the Moon, Mars, and beyond.”
Leveraging its initial experience on the space station, Redwire has continued to advance ROSA technology to provide robust and reliable power to numerous spaceflight platforms and ambitious missions including NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test and supporting commercial geotelecommunications satellites. Moreover, Redwire has built the most powerful ROSA wings in its history to help power the historic SR-1 Freedom Mission to Mars. In addition to ROSA, Redwire has also developed the Extensible Low-Profile Solar Array (ELSA) for a variety of satellite missions. With more than 65 solar array wings delivered or in development, Redwire will power the future of civil, commercial, and national security missions in space.
