Australia's CSIRO launched printed solar cells into space for testing on a SpaceX mission.

Australia's CSIRO launched printed solar cell technology into space on SpaceX's Transporter-10 mission aboard Optimus-1, Australia's largest-ever private satellite. The cells, developed by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization, are being tested to assess their reliability as an energy source for future space missions. If successful, the printed flexible solar cells could offer a lightweight, high-efficiency power system for space exploration.
