curcitry in space

[Justa_kid]

I have several questions that need answering

 

1) can a complex circuit system still work in space?

2) if not how can I have one in space that will work?

3) will it still work in harsh environments of high heat or extreme cold

4) if not what would be a good insulator?

 

*please answer these questions without any remarks that are off topic

*i might also have questions to follow so do please answer them

 

And yes I realize that this is the "Engineering" section

1) can a complex circuit system still work in space?

Yes, although I am not sure if you need protection against radiation of the sun.

 

2) if not how can I have one in space that will work?

3) will it still work in harsh environments of high heat or extreme cold

Cold: Spacecraft often use a heating system and insulation. Just a fancy version of any heating.

Heat: heat can be a problem for processors, which is why computers have a cooling fan (or multiple). In space, you need a radiator, and possibly a way to transport the heat to the radiator. In other words, you need a cooling liquid, just like the water cooling of some cars.

 

4) if not what would be a good insulator?

Against heat, reflective materials are the best. Against cold, just a very fancy lightweight insulation. Not sure what those are called.

(There's really no need to write this - it's against forum regulations to be too much off topic).
