Abstract Optically sensitive surfaces on the International Space Station (ISS) can be damaged (or eroded/pitted) when impacted by high velocity unburned liquid propellant drops present in bipropellant thruster plumes. Surfaces with thin optical coatings, such as solar arrays and radiators, are of primary concern. Thruster plume-induced erosion/pitting of sensitive surfaces has been observed on Space Shuttle flight experiments.
