    Thermal for surface missions

    The Moon presents an extremely harsh environment for robotic and human exploration, with diurnal temperature cycles spanning nearly 300°C (-150 to 120°C). Active thermal control is widely regarded as a key technology to enable surface assets to survive the lunar night. We report on progress in the development of a compact and scalable, actively shuttered radiator, designed to be resilient to...

    Thermal for surface missions

    Over the last decades, several missions have successfully landed on the Mars Surface, placing scientific instrumentation onboard landers and rovers in different individual landing sites. However, a qualitative leap in “in-situ” climate science on the red planet could happen via larger-scale observations. MarsConnect is an INTA project that aims to develop microprobes with scientific...

    Thermal for surface missions

    With the growing interest in lunar missions during the last few years, the demand for technologies which allow hardware to survive the extreme conditions of the lunar night has increased. One promising approach is to enable high performance bi-directional thermal control in space applications.

    Lunar Outpost EU has continued the development of the active thermal switch (ATS). The compact...
