A thermal radiator shutter and methods of providing thermal control by and manufacturing a thermal radiator shutter are provided. The thermal radiator shutter includes a first baseplate, a second baseplate that is moveable between an open and closed position, and an actuator for moving the second baseplate. When the second baseplate is in the closed position a radiator on the second baseplate faces a radiator on the first baseplate to provide radiative coupling and heat flow between the baseplates. When the second baseplate is in the open position, the respective radiators have a greater view factor to the surrounding environment than in the closed position and a reduced view factor to each other compared to the closed position. The respective radiators reject heat from temperature-controlled components on the first and second baseplates when the second baseplate is in the open position.
