Radiator Development for Oxygen Storage on the MoonVision for Exploration includes "use of lunar resources to support sustained human space exploration". In a favorable orbit, dark sky could be a valuable resource. Spitzer Space Telescope dewar shell maintained at 35 K. Lunar orbit is favorable. Design of radiator to specific lunar environment. A large patch of lunar sky is permanently dark. Radiator provides reliable and un-interrupted cooling. Applications include: a) Zero-boil-off cryogen storage; b) Separation of lunar volatiles for resource utilization; c) Purify oxygen for astronauts; and d) Scrub air for habitation.
