Thermal Control Coatings Flown on MISSE and METISA variety of coatings for passive thermal control were flown on the Materials on International Space Station Experiment (MISSE) 15th and 16th flights and on the Materials Exposure and Technology Innovation in Space (METIS) 1st flight. The MISSE and METIS flights were both in low Earth orbit but had very different results. Space environmental and molecular contamination effects on optical properties are reviewed. Future experiments, including the Regolith Adherence Characterization (RAC) flight to the Moon, are discussed.
