Thermal Insulation
Thermal Insulation Capabilities
Thermal insulation is a Northrop Grumman specialty. Quality tailored Multi-layer Insulation (MLI) blankets offer simple, lightweight, passive, proven, and reliable thermal insulation at low cost. Spacecraft/payload performance and longevity depend on stable onboard thermal environments during mission life, which may span decades and include thousands of extreme temperature excursions.
