This makes it possible to make efficient use of the material of the wafer from which the space-qualified solar cells are produced by reducing waste, while arrangement of the space-qualified solar cells into rectangular unit cells enables construction of substantially rectangular space-qualified solar cell arrays and assemblies that have their surface area covered substantially by space-qualified solar cells with little area unoccupied by space-qualified solar cells.
