Conditions of space environment, especially high vacuum, and high degree of reliability required are 2 important aspects of problem of lubrication; experiments were made using conventional designs to achieve high reliability, and narrow gap seal with calculated oil loss instead of rubbing contact seal was selected; 2 systems are evolved from theoretical considerations derived from kinetic theory of gases; experiments validate usefulness of approach.
