I’m really excited to learn more about these heat shields. @elonmusk, how much more durable are they than the Shuttle TPS? Are they just bolted onto the frame or how are they mounted? Do they ablate or just insulate? It’s cool they’re uniform! 👌

Mechanically attached to steel studs. Insulation is certainly the intention!
