A Eutelsat communications satellite launched earlier this month has a solar array problem. Eutelsat said Thursday it is investigating an "incident" with one of two solar arrays on the Eutelsat 5 West B satellite, launched on a Proton two weeks ago. The company did not disclose additional details about the problem, including its severity and impact on the satellite's operations. The satellite is insured for 173 million euros ($192 million).
