AAC Clyde Space Glasgow historical test-facility reference

Partially verified listing. Historical Skypark Glasgow equipment context is supported. Current exact laboratory identity, equipment and testing access remain unresolved; no shared group capacity or 2016 future plan is transferred into current scope.

AAC Clyde Space

An archived UK Space Facilities page dated 20 March 2018 describes AAC Clyde Space’s Skypark Glasgow premises and in-house solar-panel light sources, thermal/thermal-vacuum and vibration test equipment. The original also retains older 2016 plans and an inconsistent thermal-range statement, so numerical equipment limits are omitted. The current owner lists Glasgow among a group of facilities with tailored capabilities, but does not allocate its shared equipment portfolio to this exact historical site.
