Abstract The equilibrium temperature of a system in space can be lowered by a suitable choice of its geometry and its attitude. This remark is important for devices based on medium temperature and high temperature superconducting materials, and offers the possibility of their fully passive cooling without or with a marginal recourse to active systems. General parameterizations are given and simple schemes discussed. The adopted geometrical configuration and the attitude can enhance the role of passive cooling of the large superconducting magnetic systems required for protecting from ionizing radiation manned habitats in deep space. A specific example based on MgB2 cable for protecting large volume habitats (500 and 1000m3) is treated. The systems can be run in deep space at equilibrium temperatures around 20K mainly by passive cooling, provided that their geometry and attitude would be suitably chosen.
