I stand so corrected. Clearly I do not know my 2,000,000 F tolerant heat shielding materials. I should have consulted the pink panther. lol
I gave up on trying to figure out how the stupid ISS aluminum piece of garbage is allegedly traveling at mach 23 through the thermosphere without burning to a crisp...but the NASA worshipers claim "heat flux density" non-arguments...so whatever.
That's an interesting theory. I'll add that to the list of ISS related questions I've been unable to find satisfactory answers to for many years now. Like...how is the damn thing electrically grounded? ...and how the hell do vacuum seals remain pliable and therefore safe at those alleged pressures without constant service/replacement?Aren't there cameras on the resupply shipments that are sent up to the ISS? (honestly, I don't know if there are, or are not; but if so they could be the source of such a picture)
