New flagship experience · review pending

Point the spacecraft. Change the energy.

Same frozen CubeSat Twin. Six academic depths.

Software-only · Frozen WSC-A6.1 · Reference geometry

How does spacecraft attitude change generated solar energy on the accepted WSC-A6.1 coupling, and what does that coupling not include?

This experience uses an equal-area REFERENCE/ASSUMED cube geometry. It is not CAD, measured array performance, MPPT, or flight prediction.

Current academic depth: Grades 11–12 — Analyse · Program · Evaluate · Optimise. Same model. Different academic disclosure.

Product UI implemented locally; frozen EDU-2B binding remains stage-specific UI pending. Manifest status: implemented_locally_review_pending.

Theory

Frame the trade using performance criteria and bounded policy/language where allowed. Stage intent: quantify energy/SOC trade and mission impact.

Mission question

How does spacecraft attitude change generated solar energy on the accepted WSC-A6.1 coupling, and what does that coupling not include?

Prediction

Predict the trade outcome against named criteria.

Corner-biased hold will generate

Digital Twin

Use existing safe grammar or bounded controls only; never arbitrary hosted code. Runtime remains the frozen Twin; this plan does not execute physics.

Conceptual orientation view

Diagram of the named hold target, not a live 3D pose. The Twin uses a fixed controller target, not sun tracking.

SunReference hold

Checkpoint

Check criteria, uncertainty, and forbidden claims.

Optional supervised Hardware/HIL

Unavailable in this V1 software-only experience. Hardware is never required for completion. There is no hardware command here.
