Surviving atmospheric re-entry is one of the most challenging moments for any space mission, with heating exceeding 1,000s of degrees. The job of keeping the astronauts, cargo, and spacecraft falls to the thermal protection system (TPS). The development of TPS began early in the advent of space travel, but in recent years, the growing demand for commercial space travel has introduced new challenges and opportunities for the TPS industry.
This webinar will:
- Outline the role and function of TPS
- Delineate the key categories of TPS, from tile-based systems to ablators and hypersonic expandable decelerators
- Examine the key requirements of TPS, from a technical and economic perspective, as well as emerging use-cases
- Give a brief outlook for the market over the next decade
This webinar shares some of the research from the new IDTechEx report, "Heat Shields & Thermal Protection Systems for Spacecraft 2025-2035: Technologies and Market Outlook".
