In the clean room, that shape may look like a box with panels, brackets, hinges, blankets, fasteners, harnesses, fittings, rails, and folded appendages. In orbit, the same shape becomes a set of promises. The camera must stay aligned with its reference sensors. The antenna must deploy into the geometry the link budget assumed. The solar arrays must open without striking the spacecraft or binding in a hinge. The structure must survive launch, then become quiet enough that payloads can measure, point, transmit, and cool themselves.</p>
