Five General Electric (GE) 26.5 Ah NOAA-G flight nickel-cadmium cells were obtained from RCA-Astro Electronics to undergo performance characterization testing at the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC). These cells were manufactured with passivated positive plates, to control nickel structure attack during active material impregnation, and less electrolyte than normal ( less than 3 ml/A h). The cells were tested in a parametric low Earth orbit (LEO) cycling regime that had previously been used to test and characterize GSFC standard 50 Ah cells. Life cycle testing at the US Naval Weapons Support Center (NWSC) in Crane, Indiana followed. The results of the test showed nominal performance by comparison with previous test data on the standard 50. Life cycle testing in the NOAA orbital regime is continuing at NWSC.
