We strengthened the array framewith 1-inch aluminum angles and square tubes, and riveted the aluminum panels to the frame.We did not want to glue the solar panels directly on the aluminum panels to avoid short-circuiting. One of our team members suggested the use of aircraft grade Dacron on the array asan insulating layer between the solar and aluminum panels.

In Apollo 1,faulty wiring in an explosive atmosphere led to loss of the capsule and crew. (Three years later,Apollo 13 was almost lost due to faulty wiring in an explosive atmosphere.) Almost thirty yearslater, TWA Flight 800 was lost with all aboard due to faulty wiring in an explosive atmosphere.The Concorde, which had a long history of tire failures causing wing and fuel tank damage, waslost when it hit debris and a
