4) Thermal Vac Test (copyright also: LMA):
Description:
Traveling through the vacuum of space for months at a time can take a toll on a spacecraft. The 2001 Mars Odyssey spacecraft must go through a series of tests at Lockheed Martin Astronautics in Denver before being flown to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida for launch. Thermal vacuum tests simulate space conditions to ensure that the spacecraft can withstand the intensely cold temperatures and harsh radiation conditions of space.
