Summary

Description2-heat shield.jpg	English: NASA is working on an inflatable heat shield that allows the large surface area to take up less space in a rocket than a rigid one. The technology could land spacecraft on any planet with an atmosphere. It would expand and inflate before it enters the Martian atmosphere to land cargo and astronauts safely. Here, engineers prepare for the flexible heat shield installation on the inflatable structure. The view is from bottom side, heat shield is on top. The gold straps hanging from the black triangles will be attached to the inflatable structure strapping and tensioned.
