On 9th December 2015, an ESA audit was carried out as well as a verification test of the vacuum thermal chamber for simulating the Mars and Moon environment. The chamber will now be used for the qualification tests of the miniature thermal switch for space applications. It is a project financed by ESA; the switch is developed by the AeroSEKUR company. Both the employees of our Institute and some students are involved in this project. (It is Bc. Jakub Mašek refilling the tank with liquid nitrogen in the pictures)
