Space Qualifications Facility

At the Maine Space Corporation’s Space Qualification Facility at 112 Orion Street in Hanger 5 at Brunswick Landing, we provide state-of-the-art testing equipment designed for aerospace R&D, product testing, and qualifying innovation for space applications — but equally valuable to companies in manufacturing, consumer products, medical devices, defense, transportation, electronics, renewable energy, and beyond. Whether you want to validate your current products, explore new markets, or simply prove durability to your customers, our facility can help.

In addition to supporting commercial and aerospace sectors, the Space Qualification Facility is a valuable resource for academic research and university-led innovation. Faculty, students, and research teams can use the equipment for experimental validation, prototype testing, and STEM education initiatives.

Our mission is to accelerate innovation, reduce risk, and open new markets by providing access to specialized environmental and mechanical testing capabilities that are often out of reach for smaller organizations. By simulating the extreme conditions of launch, transport, and operational environments, we help ensure that your products meet the highest standards of durability and safety.

The 1,300 square feetfacility features:

  • Electrodynamic Vibration Shaker – Replicates the intense vibration profiles experienced during rocket launches and transportation.
  • Mechanical Shock System – Delivers high-impact shock pulses to validate ruggedness and survivability.
  • Temperature and Humidity Chamber – Simulates harsh thermal and humidity cycles for environmental stress testing.
  • A Conference Room with audio visual capabilities to allow video meetings.
  • Electrostatic discharge (ESD) protected workbenches for disassembling and assembling electronic components for testing.

Whether you are qualifying aerospace hardware, validating packaging performance, or proving the reliability of consumer products, the Space Qualification Facility provides the tools, expertise, and support to help you prove, improve, and expand your products.
