Solar panels convert sunlight into electrical energy to power a satellite's systems. The solar panels are typically used to charge batteries whilst the satellite is in sunlight. When the satellite passes to the far side of the Earth (into eclipse) the satellite systems will continue to run powered by the on-board batteries. Individually, solar pane…

Solar radiation is radiation emanating from the Sun and consisting mainly of visible light, ultraviolet radiation, and infrared radiation, although the whole spectrum of electromagnetic waves is present, from radio waves to X-rays. High-energy charged particles such as electrons are also emitted, especially from solar flares. When these reach the E...
