NASA's New Spaceplane is Trying to Complete What SpaceX ''Impossible''...
The greatest challenge in developing a fully reusable spacecraft lies in its thermal protection system-an obstacle even SpaceX founder Elon Musk has acknowledged as formidable.
Yet, a lesser-known company, Sierra Space, has achieved a remarkable breakthrough. They have engineered an entirely new heat shield for their Dream Chaser vehicle, enabling it to withstand multiple reentries while remaining fully reusable.
How did they accomplish this feat? What cutting-edge technology powers this innovation? Let’s dive in and explore.

The greatest challenge in safely returning spacecraft to Earth is our atmosphere. While this protective shell shields us from cosmic rays and constant meteor showers, it also causes satellites with decayed orbits to burn up-unless they are equipped with specialized heat protection.
Despite its cutting-edge design, SpaceX’s Starship has struggled with this phase of re-entry, experiencing damage to its heat shield tiles, with some even detaching under the immense heat and pressure. This issue has raised concerns about the reliability and durability of current thermal protection systems, especially for vehicles designed for rapid reuse. However, Sierra Space may have found the solution.

Sierra Space has recently partnered with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a premier federally funded research center in Tennessee, to develop a revolutionary Thermal Protection System (TPS). This state-of-the-art technology is engineered to withstand the extreme heat of atmospheric re-entry while enabling high-frequency, reusable space missions. If successful, it could set a new standard for spacecraft durability and reusability.

To be resolved, thank you.
It hasn't even been launched yet
Was working on this system for years ¡ But we didn't get the carbon attached! To have worked on early development of these is something I cherish
Believe it when I see it successfully reach orbit and return safely to earth
You keep labeling it "NASA's Spaceplane". It belongs to Sierra Space. NASA couldn't do this on its' best day, not since Apollo.
@@jcdisci NASA isn't supposed to do this. That's the point. NASA purchases the hardware from Aerospace industry vendors. Nothing new here. Mercury in Gemini capsules were bought from McDonnell. Apollo spacecraft were bought from North American. Lunar modules were bought from Grumman. North American Rockwell built the Space Shuttle.
NASA must be completely reinvented with a new mission...such as.."stop wasting time & money on old world BS!
***NASA needs a streamlined program...like Space X.
***Reduce the huge bureaucracy to be comparable to...SpaceX.
I also could not understand the title it wasn't improper English forcing me to have to watch to understand
this channel is just clickbait looking for views to pad their account like so many websites, its a shame that telling the truth doesnt matter anymore, and if nasa did it it would take thirty years and just as many billions of dollars and then they would sell it at auction......
I for one want to see how it does after an orbital launch
How do they know it will work?
May have found? It hasn't flown.
Dream Chaser is the way to go - come back any time anywhere, land at the next available airport. Dropping capsules into the sea needs to end, Okay 60 years ago but we need to progress. Whilst the Space Shuttle had its issues, it was definitely the way forward, the next space plane needs to be what we have with Dream Chaser, smaller and adaptable, roll on the human rated version!
It hasn't flown yet. Full stop 🛑
Great video! Thank you for reporting on the tremendous advances that Sierra space is making.
keep that comment for when it flys, wonder who they will use to put it in space.....hmmmm I remember somewhere it said some rich guy put a red sports car into space......
Please someone to explain to me what is revolutionary in the Dream Chaser heat shield that is exactly the same that uses Starship until now besides different materials composition and square tiles 10x10 instead of haxagon tiles.
Salu2 :)
Outrageous
So hype.....
Very nice, very pretty now get it up and down again and lets see if it actually is any good.
For an orbital system, this makes a lot more sense than parachute landing, or propulsive Landing
💩They haven't even put the thing into space, don't know if it will work in orbit. 🤔🤪
Footwear manufacturers across the country are mounting a class action lawsuit against NASA claiming: “NASA has engaged in anti-competitive conduct. We were not consulted or invited to participate in the design process of the flying shoe”. NASA is currently considering if partnering with footwear manufacturers is a good fit.
I prefer the Leidenfrost effect as a potential idea for a shield.
Both film and transpiration cooling were studied for this as far back as the 1950s. There's no substitute for advanced ceramics in a reusable system
Not a NASA space plane - Sierra's
There is no description of the technology used to build the thermal protection system. I know they are working towards a patent but seems like some information would be available.
Alguém assistindo?🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Title is a bit misleading as it's not nasa but Serria Space
Not NASA s spaceplane…..it belongs to Sierra Space….change that headline
This thing hasn't even been to orbiter done anything this video is a waste of time
This has to be more of a practical person carrier and a starship has a large person carrier or cargo, kinda like spaceplane for a car, starship like a train any mention of the spray-on protection I'm always banging on about?
This isn't cutting g edge
So... does anyone know if aerogel tiles work as spacecraft heat shields or does aerogel become unstable and expand in low/zero atmosphere?
One problem, it hasn't been tested in space, hahahaha 😎
Also SpaceX does not patient stuff!
So I hope they didn't waste with their patient submission!
@@johnsadler6534what SpaceX does has no effect on what Sierra space does
Untested unproven at this time.
@thomasnewton9818 so why you selling the great new heat shield.
🇺🇾🇵🇱🇮🇷🇧🇷🇺🇸🇧🇷🇺🇸🇵🇱🇫🇷🇫🇷🇸🇪🇨🇱🇻🇪🇨🇱🇸🇪
that plane doesnt look big enough to send very much into space, must be just for tourist, when do they expect to launch it, I used to be a subscriber but just cancelled great spacex because I know that space x would have nothing to do with trash that is unproven....
