1. Rutgers developed water-soluble sustained release polymers, heat shield on the Space Shuttle. 2. It used a heat shield , parachute and retrorockets to slow its descent. 3. The horizontal heat shield is the most commonly found on Snow Tracs. 4. At the forward heat shield was jettisoned using four pressurized-gas compression springs. 5. During descent, the parachute is deployed and the heat shield is detached. 6. Later in the flight, telemetry indicated that the heat shield had loosened. 7. The heat shield is made of phenolic impregnated carbon ablator ( PICA ). 8. They also contain heat shields made of polymers or heat-resistant wax. 9. But this is where the heat shield meets the vacuum, right above here, 10. These flights validated the Service Module engine and the Command Module heat shield .
