what happen with electronics parts in space like quartz and electrolytic capacitor in vacuum. I have never heard about how quartz works in space is there any limitations? I know that some plastic outgasing and are not suitable for use in space, but if using COTS technology like hamradio station yaesu vx-series on cubesats, I believe that there are many electronics parts which are crytical for use on the cubesats?
thanks for comments, best regards Andy
