Thermal-protection schemes evaluated for space vehicles bouncing off Earth atmosphere. Report compares performances of four conceptual heat shields for transatmospheric vehicles. These future spacecraft will operate above atmosphere of Earth but will dip into atmosphere to exploit combinations of aerodynamic and propulsive forces for such major maneuvers as changing orbital planes. Will experience high rates of aerodynamic heating during such maneuvers. Three concepts based on insulating tile fastened to skin of vehicle. Fourth conceptual system includes multilayer insulating blanket under heat shield of FRCI.
