A lightweight flexible radiator system for on-orbit cooling of space payloads is described. The radiator is packaged as a compact unit which can be attached to a vehicle structure or hatch prior to or after launch. On-orbit, it is deployed to provide the radiating surface needed for a specific experiment. The unit is being independently developed and qualified as a heat rejection system which will be ready for any spacecraft or experiment, and which will not require significant structural and systems accommodation. Design details and thermal vacuum test results are presented.
