The craft docked the laboratory successfully.
The starlink megaconstellation which will consist of at least some 12 000 satellites and possibly up to 42 000 will be serving up broadband internet from low earth orbit.
Integrated hardware and simple design achieve this by securing the panels close to your roof and to each other for a minimal aesthetic.
Following 19 hour cruise spacex s crew dragon spacecraft arrived at the international space station.

Dragon shows off its new integrated solar arrays as spacex nears first flight confidence is increasing for a january flight of the first dragon 2 mission.
In this conceptual view each starlink satellite unfurls its single solar panel.
Unlike any discernible solar panel deployment mechanism with a flight history spacex s starlink engineers seem to have taken a style of deployment used successfully on the international space.
