DEVICE FOR SIMULATING RADIATION-TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENT AND ATMOSPHERE COMPOSITION EXISTING ON THE PLANET MARS

摘要

A simulating device comprises an exterior sealed chamber whithin which an interior sealed chamber is located. The interior sealed chamber is provided with an area for placing microorganisms and/or an object under test. The exterior chamber is provided with a cooler and a pump-compressor for creating simulated atmosphere parameters and pressure therein. The device comprises pressure and other parameters measuring equipment and an assemblage of mercury-argon vapor lamps in the interior chamber.
