One of the three arrays is only 2 091 meters wide due to launch vehicle limitations.
Juno solar panel size.
That s why the surface area of solar panels required to generate adequate power is quite large.
5 the juno spacecraft will slowly unfold its three large solar panels each nearly 9 feet 2 7 meters wide and 30 feet 10 meters long.
If you install a 6 kilowatt kw system with 20 average sized panels your system will likely measure approximately 27 feet wide by 13 feet long 352 square feet in all.
Launched in 2011 juno is the first solar powered spacecraft designed to operate at such a great distance from the sun.

The juno mission launched in 2011 is the first mission to jupiter arrived at jupiter on july 4 2016 to use solar panels instead of the traditional rtgs that are used by previous outer solar system missions making it the furthest spacecraft to use solar panels to date.
The four ton juno spacecraft carries three 30 foot long 9 meter solar arrays festooned with 18 698 individual solar cells.
Small solar panels yet you can also find panels of 150 160 or 175 watts.
Juno l 9 m w 2 7 m panel a 60m2 mass 340kg total number of solar cells.
Within an hour of its planned launch on friday aug.
With solar arrays deployed juno s span is about 20 meters.
It has 72 square metres 780 sq ft of panels.
This assumes that your panels can be placed close together and that there are no obstructions on your roof.
