Rear view of the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. The instrument boom hosts the SWA/EAS sensor at its tip, and the RPW/SCM sensor as well as the two MAG sensors along its length. The high-gain antenna is made out of titanium treated with SolarBlack, and is fully articulated to communicate with ground stations throughout the orbit. The rear-side of the solar arrays has been covered with conductive foil to avoid electrostatic charging.
