A window system for a platform comprising a window pane, a retention frame, and a biasing system. The window pane may be configured to contact a sealing system. The retention frame may be configured to contact the sealing system and hold the window pane against the support frame. The biasing system may be configured to bias the retention frame toward the support frame while the support frame and the retention frame are in a configuration that holds the window pane. Removal of the biasing system may cause the retention frame and the window pane to be removable.

1. A window system for a platform, the window system comprising: a window pane configured to contact a sealing system;a retention frame configured to contact the sealing system and hold the window pane against a support frame; anda biasing system configured to bias the retention frame toward the support frame while the support frame and the retention frame are in a configuration that holds the window pane, and removal of the biasing system causes the retention frame and the window pane to be removable;wherein a first portion of the biasing system is configured to contact the retention frame and a second portion of the biasing system is configured to engage a channel in the support frame. 2. The window system of claim 1, wherein the support frame is configured to contact the sealing system and support the window pane. 3. The window system of claim 1, wherein the sealing system is in contact with the window pane, the support frame, and the retention frame and forms a seal for the window pane. 4. The window system of claim 3, wherein the support frame is connected to a structure by at least one of a fastener system or a thermal protection system. 5. The window system of claim 3, wherein the support frame is connected to a thermal protection system. 6. The window system of claim 1, wherein the retention frame has an L-shape. 7. The window system of claim 1, wherein the retention frame comprises: a base; anda flange extending from the base, wherein the flange contacts the sealing system. 8. The window system of claim 1, wherein the biasing system is a number of springs. 9. The window system of claim 8, wherein a first portion of the number of springs is configured to contact the retention frame and a second portion of the number of springs is configured to engage the channel in the support frame. 10. The window system of claim 1, wherein the sealing system comprises: a number of seals. 11. The window system of claim 1, wherein the sealing system comprises at least one of a thermal seal or a pressure seal located between the window pane and the retention frame. 12. The window system of claim 1, wherein the platform is selected from one of a mobile platform, a stationary platform, a land-based structure, an aquatic-based structure, a space-based structure, a vehicle, an aircraft, a space capsule, a space shuttle, or a submarine. 13. A window system for a spacecraft, the window system comprising: a sealing system in which a number of seals comprises at least one of a number of thermal seals or a number of pressure seals;a window pane to contact the sealing system;a support frame configured to contact the sealing system and support the window pane;a retention frame having an L-shape with a base and a flange that extends from the base in which the retention frame is configured to contact the sealing system and hold the window pane against the support frame; in which the sealing system comprises at least one of the number of thermal seals and the number of pressure seals is located between the window pane and the retention frame; and in which the sealing system is in contact with the window pane, the support frame, and the flange of the retention frame and forms a seal for the window pane;a number of springs in a biasing system configured to bias the retention frame toward the support frame while the support frame and the retention frame are in a configuration that holds the window pane in which a first portion of the number of springs is configured to contact the retention frame and a second portion of the number of springs is configured to engage a channel in the support frame and in which removal of the biasing system causes the retention frame and the window pane to be removable; anda structure for the spacecraft, wherein the support frame is connected to the structure by a fastener system. 14. A window system for a platform, the window system comprising: a window pane configured to contact a sealing system;a retention frame configured to contact the sealing system and hold the window pane against a support frame; anda biasing system configured to bias the retention frame toward the support frame while the support frame and the retention frame are in a configuration that holds the window pane, and removal of the biasing system causes the retention frame and the window pane to be removable;wherein a first portion of the biasing system is configured to contact the retention frame and a second portion of the biasing system is configured to engage a channel in the support frame; andwherein the retention frame has an L-shape.
