An apparatus for transmitting heat from a component side to a radiator side on a spacecraft includes a component side that contains a heater, an electrical component, an optional first conduction link, and a first portion of a switchable thermal link and a radiator side that includes a radiator, an optional second conduction link and a second portion of a switchable thermal link. The first portion of the switchable thermal link and the second portion of the switchable link are in operative thermal communication with the component side and the radiator side respectively. The first portion of the switchable thermal link and the second portion of the switchable thermal link are reversibly attachable and detachable. The switchable thermal link is operative to receive and radiate thermal energy from the component side to the radiator side.
