A spacecraft includes substantially parallel first radiator and second radiator panels, and a transverse panel coupled, having a width, W, coupled therebetween. The spacecraft also includes a first heat pipe having a first section parallel and proximate to the first radiator panel and a second section parallel and proximate to the transverse panel, a second heat pipe having a first section parallel and proximate to the second radiator panel and a second section parallel and proximate to the transverse panel and a third heat pipe, proximate and parallel to the transverse panel, the second section of the first heat pipe, and the second section of the second heat pipe. The third heat pipe has a length, L, substantially greater than W/2.
