Claim 15:
16. The method of claim 11, wherein the at least one recuperative heat exchanger includes a first recuperative heat exchanger, a second recuperative heat exchanger, and a third recuperative heat exchanger; and wherein the method further comprises:
cooling a compressed hydrogen stream in the first recuperative heat exchanger to form a first reduced temperature hydrogen stream;
cooling the first reduced temperature hydrogen stream in the deep space hydrogen radiator to form a radiator-cooled hydrogen stream;
cooling the radiator-cooled hydrogen stream in the second recuperative heat exchanger to form a further reduced temperature hydrogen stream; and
cooling the further reduced temperature hydrogen stream in the third recuperative heat exchanger to form a finally reduced temperature hydrogen stream;
wherein the cooled hydrogen stream includes the compressed hydrogen stream, the first reduced temperature hydrogen stream, the radiator-cooled hydrogen stream, the further reduced temperature hydrogen stream, and the finally reduced temperature hydrogen stream.
