Abstract
MORFEO is an adaptive optics module able to compensate the wavefront disturbances affective the scientific observation. It will be installed on the straight-through port of the telescope Nasmyth platform to serve the first-light instrument MICADO and with the provision for a future second instrument. The module successfully passed the Preliminary Design Review in 2021 and is currently in the Final Design phase.

In this paper we present the status of the Thermal Control System (ThCS) with a focus on the thermal and cooling circuits design. The prototyping plan foreseen for the future to validate this circuit is also presented.
