A variety of common spacecraft thermal control materials were exposed to a laboratory test designed to simulate the effects of the low-Earth-orbital space-radiation environment. The goal of this test program was to garner performance data on the subj

T HE fact that materials degrade in space-radiation environments has been studied for decades [1–19] and continues to be an issue of significant importance for space-based systems. Consequently, ground-based simulation of space environmental effect

M ATERIALS that reside on the exterior of a spacecraft, and are therefore unshielded, are exposed to the entire space environment. In addition to receiving a substantial dose of ionizing radiation from exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation, externa

Optical Interference Coatings.
Silver mirrors on the Suomi-NPP spacecraft exhibited significant degradation during early orbit operations. This paper describes the investigation that identified the source of the loss as a UV-sensitive contaminant deposited during manufacturing.

The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is a sensor onboard the recently launched Suomi NPP spacecraft. Shortly after launch, VIIRS was found to exhibit a pronounced decrease in the optical throughput of several bands, with the near-inf

Light weight, flexible, radiation hardened solar cells coatings are of interest for applications on satellite power generation owing to the potential advantages in terms of having higher specific power (lightweight), lower specific volume (flexible),
