It was declared a [[National Historic Landmark]] in 1985 and is on the [[National Register of Historic Places]].<ref name = nhl_summary/><ref name=nris/> |
||
It is used for testing spacecraft in space-like conditions of extreme cold, near-vacuum pressure, and high radiation. [[Ranger program|Ranger]], [[Surveyor Program|Surveyor]], [[Mariner program|Mariner]], and [[Voyager program|Voyager]] spacecraft were all tested in this facility.<ref name = nrhpinv2/> |

==Description== |
|||
The Twenty-Five-Foot Space Simulator is a stainless-steel cylinder {{convert|85|ft|m}} in height and {{convert|27|ft|m}} in diameter. A doorway {{convert|15|ft|m}} wide and {{convert|25|ft|m}} high provides access for bringing test objects and equipment into the chamber; a personnel access door is built into the larger doorway. Its walls and floor are lined with cooling shrouds that help provide a controllable temperature range from {{convert|-320|F|C}} to {{convert|200|F|C}}. A series of lamps, lenses, and mirrors can irradiate the chamber with a directed beam of simulated solar energy in a variety of patterns and strengths. The chamber can be depressurized to 5×10<sup>−7</sup> [[torr]]. Test objects can be mounted with a number of attachment points and methods. The chamber is mounted on a seismically isolated foundation.<ref name="nrhpinv2" /> The chamber requires about 75 minutes to achieve a space-like environment, and about 2{{frac|1|2}} hours to return to a normal environment. |
|||
Next to the chamber is a [[clean room]] in which equipment can be prepared for testing.<ref name="nrhpinv2" /> |
