Abstract

There are many similarities between deep space probe and Earth orbit spacecraft in terms of environmental adaptability and environmental testing, but there are also differences between them. Especially, to adapt to the special space environment, entry environment, landing environment and the surface environment of celestial bodies in the orbiting and landing exploration missions, a series of specific technical challenges to the simulation test of the ground environment need to be solved. At the same time, it is necessary to build and improve the relevant environmental testing facilities.
