摘要

Part 1 of this description of the Icarus spacecraft designs appeared in Spaceflight Vol 58 No 4 pp 143-145. It described the designs of the Firefly and Ghost variants of the Icarus spacecraft. This article describes the Resolution, Zeus and UDD designs. All of these designs continue to progress and incorporate continuous iteration. By the time full papers are submitted to JBIS there may have been further evolution, but the aim of this article is to provide a more general preview.
