Abstract :
An overview is presented of the Survivable Power (SUPER) Subsystem Demonstration program. The program is discussed in terms of rationale and the need for increased survivability and power levels for satellite solar power subsystems, the technical approaches being investigated on both the component and subsystem levels, and the specific requirements and programmatics. Progress to date is summarized
