This contribution is a survey of the available experimental radiation data measured in the VUV range related to hypersonic atmospheric entry. The objective is to identify the datasets already gathered during aerothermodynamics studies for preparing Mars, Venus, and sample return missions. The final goal is to identify the most valuable datasets for comparisons with future data measured in the European shock-tube ESTHER. Due to the limited number of studies covering VUV radiation in relation to space exploration missions, the review has been extended to domains such as nuclear fusion, exobiology, chemical and process engineering.
