NASA MERCURY SIGMA 7 FLOWN IN SPACE HEATSHIELD ARTIFACT - 10''x8'' Presentation
A genuine segment of Sigma 7 flown heatshield from the Mercury-Atlas 7 spacecraft and comes attached to a mission photograph of the Mercury-Atlas 8 spacecraft lifting off from the launchpad.
- What is the heatshield?
Built of honeycombed aluminum with many layers of glass-fiber material, the heatshield would boil away as the Mercury capsule descended through the atmosphere as it re-entered Earth's atmosphere. As the silica material (fiberglass) melted, it deposited a white residue on its surface, resembling icing.
