Disclosed is a system for a satellite, the system including a carrier panel and a tensioning device, the tensioning device being switchable from a holding state, in which it holds the carrier panel in a transportation pose, to a release state, in which it permits movement of the carrier panel from the transportation pose into a working pose, wherein the system is configured such that the carrier panel is elastically deformed in the transportation pose and, after switching the tensioning device into the release state, a restoring force based on the elastic deformation of the carrier panel contributes to the movement of the carrier panel from the transportation pose into the working pose. Furthermore, a corresponding carrier plate and a satellite are disclosed.
