====Power==== Power for ''CONTOUR'' derives from [[solar cell]]s, which are mounted onto the spacecraft, decorating the sides and rear and generating up to 670 [[watt]]s of power. A [[nickel–cadmium battery]] designed to last up to nine [[ampere hour]]s was also installed aboard the spacecraft in the event that the solar cell system fails, or does not provide enough power for the spacecraft or its instruments to function.<ref name=sfn-spacecraft/>
