The importance of surface radiation characteristics in controlling the internal temperature of space vehicles has been comprehensively reviewed by other investigatorsl. It is imperative that extraterrestrial vehicles now in design be provided a surface with a ratio of solar absorptance (alpha) to long wavelength emittance (epsilon) equal to about 0. 15 to 0. 18. Ideally, a surface should possess an alpha of 0.10 and an epsilon of 0.9, or an alpha-to- epsilon ratio of 0.11.
