Abstract A model for orbit prediction to set up realistic environmental tests with combined loads (p +, UV and T) for surface materials will shortly be described, test results given and compared with orbit data until the first aphelion. Predictions were made for the 2nd perihelion as well as for the 2nd aphelion using an update of the proposed model.
