Representatives of the state corporation “Roskosmos” reported their patented technology of the orbiter, which will capable of hiding from orbiting spy satellites.
This satellite, when it detects nearby devices, will quickly change its shape. This will allow the unit to perform tasks without fear of close attention from spy devices. The satellite will change its shape until the danger will not pass, and after that it will take its original form.
This technology is made possible by solar panels, which can transform from one form to another, for example, spherical. This will reduce reflectivity if necessary. sun rays from the satellite.
Hemispheric solar panels can shield the satellite so that the reflective properties of laser beams inspector apparatus will decrease.
ESOREITER previously reported on received in June 2019 Roscosmos patent for the creation of a self-destructive satellite. The project’s core idea is to make the satellite the end of the service life or the exit of their system on command from the Earth completely destroyed, almost disappeared.
