  5. Space Qualification Spacecraft undergo a rigorous range of tests such as (depending on the mission): Launch Space Environment Shaker Table for launch vibration testing Vacuum and thermal chamber Re-entry If the spacecraft passes these tests and others then the spacecraft is Space Qualified Heat shield testing
