Code TS: Entry Systems and Technology Division

[摘要] The TS division (Entry Systems and Technology Division) includes people who 1) Help design spacecraft for different exploration missions; 2) Figure out how hot the environments around a spacecraft will get; 3) Invent new materials that can protect the spacecraft; 4) Figure out how those materials will behave on a spacecraft and how thick they need to be; 5) Plan and perform tests on those materials and spacecraft designs to prove they will fly successfully; and 6) Help get those spacecraft ready to launch. This presentation will describe a little bit about all 6 areas.
