A spacecraft includes a first deployable module and a second deployable module and is reconfigurable from a launch configuration to an on-orbit configuration. In the launch configuration, the first deployable module is adjacent to the second deployable module. The first deployable module includes a first solar array, the first solar array being rotatable, in the on-orbit configuration, about a first axis of rotation, and the second deployable module includes a second solar array, the second solar array being rotatable, in the on-orbit configuration, about a second axis of rotation, the second axis of rotation being separated by a substantial distance from the second axis of rotation.
