Thermal shielding encompasses the design and manufacture of passive and active barrier systems that manage extreme heat flux across aerospace structures, including ablative heat shields, multi-layer insulation (MLI) blankets, ceramic matrix composite (CMC) panels, and reusable surface insulation (RSI) tiles fabricated from materials such as UHTC ceramics, aerogel composites, and reinforced carbon-carbon (RCC).
