Evaluation Program for Secondary Spacecraft Cells. Synchronous Orbit Testing of General Electric Company 6.0 Ampere-Hour Sealed Nickel-Cadmium Cells,

Abstract

The purpose of this evaluation is to gather performance information concerning sealed nickel-cadmium cells operating under a synchronous orbit regime. Such a regime simulates a space satellite maintaining a position over a fixed point on earth as the earth rotates on its axis and revolves about the sun.
