[en] The growing interest in space by governmental and private institutions has increased significantly in recent years. The issue of quality control plays an extremely important role in space travel, as possible defects can cause enormous damage. The present work deals with a possible method to improve already existing quality control procedures for space flight. With the help of a 3D scanner, different components are measured and evaluated under space conditions. In particular, the linear thermal expansions are analyzed. The work has shown that the elaborated procedure works for metallic materials. For composites or joints between different materials, positive approaches were shown, which, however, could not be validated within the scope of this work. Components made of pure carbon fiber material cannot be evaluated with the technical equipment used.
