Over the last few weeks, the CatSat team has been slowly and cautiously commanding the release of gas into the Inflatable Antenna. Today, the result of these commands has become visible as the partially inflated antenna has entered the view of the wide-angle metrology camera onboard. This provides the team with visual confirmation that the small steps taken are moving in the right direction.
