Scientific paper

The ROSETTA spacecraft incorporates two deployable booms whose function is to place five sensors of the Rosetta Plasma Consortium (RPC) far from the spacecraft to minimize the disturbance created by the spacecraft electromagnetic field. In spite of the different types of deployable booms already produced, the particularities of the ROSETTA mission and the more demanding system requirements present new challenges leading to the improvement of the deployable boom design. The paper tries to describe the evolution since the definition phase of the mechanisms through the system requirements, up to the final concept and later production and testing, outlining the major novelties of the solutions adopted.
