Terry,
Thanks for the info. I ordered the aluminum faced insulation.
By the way I go to Mars every weekday morning. We just call it the
Donut shop locally.
Thanks again,

First, I am a Spacecraft, Computer Science, Aerospace guy. They keep

Most people today are involved in the Juno JOI happening this weekend.
This was what I could glean from the NASA
websites.
This piece (I have for show when I talk) is Kapton with 20 layers of
dacron netting between silver Kapton-fiberglass fabric layers.
This cuts down on heat transfer between layers. Since this is only for
show, mine is not gold, but most are.
The amount of gold used on an entire spacecraft can be measured in
ounces. Gold is a uniquely workable metal and the foil
is used primarily as radiation shield. It's more about reflection and
you only need a very thin amount. Once you leave the
protective cocoon of the earths magnetosphere (1m miles out), the
radiation is extreme. Plus gold does not corrode.
It requires less care and maintenance to keep mission-ready than it's
cheaper competitors, silver, copper or aluminum.
Astronauts visors are polycarbonate plastic coated with a thin layer of
gold. Both IR and visible light can enter our eye's retina
equally well but our eyes have visible receptors but not IR ones. If
you encounter intense visible light those receptors will warn you
to turn away. But with intense IR you would not realize your eyes are
being burned. Do you still want to go to Mars? Hmmm?

I will look into it. I have a piece of shielding in my office. It has
20 layers.
But right now I am crushed building the departure sequences for Dawn.
Plus we have Juno JOI
this weekend. Crazy stuff happening all weekend.

I recall reading a blurb from NASA (ya I read that stuff too)that the
gold
color faced insulation was much better then the aluminum color faced
insulation. You do see it in all the photos of the space craft.
Let's see if Terry knows about this.

but
the deck was really hot to the touch.
Question. I am looking for a product that can be applied (as a sheet
