TL;DR: The Habitable Exoplanet Observatory, or HabEx, has been designed to be the Great Observatory of the 2030s, a space telescope with unique imaging and multi-object spectroscopic capabilities at wavelengths ranging from ultraviolet (UV) to near-IR.

TL;DR: In this article, the design of a deployable spacecraft, measuring 60 m × 60 m, and with an areal density 100 g m^(−2), is described, which can be packaged into a cylinder measuring 1.5 m in height and 1 m in diameter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a space-based solar power station, a power generating satellite module and a method for collecting solar radiation and transmitting power generated using electrical current produced therefrom, and/or compactible structures and deployment mechanisms used to form and deploy such satellite modules and power generation tiles associated therewith are provided.

TL;DR: In this case, deployable arrays are used for stowing, deploying, and deploying spacecraft with large arrays that have deployed sizes that are much larger than the launch volumes.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3U CubeSat-like nanosatellite (MirrorSats) is used to demonstrate all key aspects of autonomous assembly and reconfiguration of a space telescope based on multiple mirror elements.
