Rocket Lab(@RocketLab):Rocket Lab hardware featured in @NASA’s Image of the Day. Our Albuquerque team manufactured the PVA panels that were populated with our high-efficiency, quad-junction Z4J+ solar cells that were integrated onto NASA NEO Surveyor’s 20-ft long sunshade structure. The array delivers up to 2 kW and is the spacecraft's only power source as it hunts hazardous asteroids and comets.
