Abstract
A laboratory experiment is carried out to investigate the plasma response to the discharge on solar array in simulated low Earth orbit plasma environment. Once a discharge occurs, the discharge point and remotely located insulator surface is connected by a dense plasma. The charge stored on the insulator surface is provided as the discharge current. The measurement by a moving probe revealed that there is electric field between the discharged array and the insulator.
