Five candidate lunar landing and launch pad candidate materials were evaluated in relevant Oxygen/Methane rocket engine plume environment exposure tests. The performance trends were modeled, observed, measured (to the extent possible), and testing results were evaluated. A total of fifteen high temperature plume tests were performed in two test campaigns: five in December 2020 and ten in March 2021. The results indicate that several of the selected materials are promising for future consideration in designing and building lunar landing and launch pads, although further development work is needed for all of them.
