16. Would we use electricity to produce heat? What are other uses for electricity in space? (A K2S Question)
From The Space Library
Actually the electronic instruments we have in space produce all the heat we will need. We will just channel it to where we need it. In fact, that equipment will probably produce more heat than we need and we may have to let it go out into space. Electricity in space is also used to produce heat, light, and power for all our instruments. Electricity is the most important thing that is needed on a spaceship.
