SOLAR CONCENTRATOR ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT for the space station

Testing of the Solar Dynamic Collector for Space Freedom.  The solar dynamic power system includes a solar concentrator, which collects sunlight; a receiver, which accepts and stores the concentrated solar energy and transfers this energy to a gas; a Brayton turbine, alternator, and compressor unit, which generates electric power; and a radiator, which rejects waste heat.
