SpaceX’s lesson from last Starship flight? “We need to seal the tiles.”
"
"SpaceX is targeting an orbital Starship flight with a next-gen vehicle next year."

"..Flight 11, Starship will fly on a suborbital trajectory similar to the flight profile the ship has flown on all of its missions to date. "

A chassis #heat #shield 🏎️🔥 is usually a solid one, which means you don’t wrap it around a component. Instead, you fix these solid #heatshield products to the undercarriage with fasteners 🔩⚙️ https://tooltalktales.wordpress.com/2025/03/03/4-types-of-heat-shields-features-and-benefits-explained/

On the next #Starship flight, #SpaceX plans to attempt to recover the #booster using catch arms 🦾. "We want to be really confident that the ship #HeatShield 🔥🛡️ is super robust and lands at the exact right location 🎯. So before we try to bring the #ship back to the launch site, we probably want to have at least three successful landings of the ship 🚀 [at sea 🌊]." https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/08/rocket-report-falcon-9-is-back-starship-could-be-recovered-off-australia/

@skrishna was the #HeatShield 🔥 checked thoroughly 🤔❓ There's a reason to think 💭 #Boeing's #quality and #safety culture might be flawed 🙄

#Starliner's #HeatShield is made of #Boeing Lightweight Ablator, a honeycomb-like structure that is hand-filled with the ablator. In areas that receive less heat, the capsule is covered with a mix of thermal blankets and heat shield tiles, both of which have #SpaceShuttle heritage.

The descent through the atmosphere will reach temperatures of 1,650 degrees 🔥 Celsius. Once through the thicker part of the #atmosphere, the heat shields are #jettisoned 🗑️ https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2024/06/starliner-cft-launch/
