In this work a new method was developed, implemented, and verified to calculate the transient thermal environment for man-manned objects on the surface of the Moon. This is an addition to the worst case design approach prevailing in spacecraft thermal engineering of today. The necessity for the developed method for the future exploration of the Moon is underlined by the results of case studies on rovers and spacesuits. The applicability of the method spans all phases of a project, from initial mission profiling over the design of subsystems to the operation phase.
