Advanced survivable space solar power system
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-contained sun-powered electric power generating system comprising a fresnel mirror array made up of a plurality of quadrilateral mirrors individually mounted on a generally flat supporting structure with the mirrors aimed at a common point above the structure, was designed to fold into itself in the form of an elongate box for launch, maneuvering and protection.
Patent
Geometric dome stowable tower reflector
TL;DR: In this article, a geodome tower reflector for a beam down optics solar power system has three equidistantly spaced tower assemblies for vertical movement along the plurality of tower assemblies.

TL;DR: A heat pipe radiator coating of a fibrous material provides protection for the radiator, such as a heat pipe, pumped loop, etc., while allowing good emissivity and heat rejection.
Patent
Moving belt radiator heat exchanger
TL;DR: In this article, a rolled belt heat exchanger utilizes the increased heat transfer due to a large, extended surface belt, and is transferred from a heated roller to the belt and then allowed to radiate to space as the belt follows a generally flattened oval path away from the heated roller.
Patent
Valve assembly for fluid transfer system
TL;DR: In this article, a valve assembly for transferring fluid from a fluid supply tank to a fluid holding tank is presented, which includes a housing having a first port for communication with the fluid supply and a second port for communicating with the holding tank.
