Phenolic Impregnated Carbon Ablator (PICA) gained heritage during theStardust mission and is the baseline thermal protection system (TPS) material for missions to Mars. However, PICA is friable, so a thin layer of siloxane resin (NuSil) is applied to the surface of the heat shield to suppress the spread of particulate matter during cleanroom activities. Until recently, the thermochemical response of NuSil had not been accounted for in material response models. Therefore, a test campaign was executed at the Hypersonic Materials Environmental Test System (HyMETS) facility to investigate the material response of NuSil and provide crucial insight for model development. Finally, salient results from an experiment supported by the AsteroidThreat Assessment Project (ATAP) will be discussed, which probed the materialr esponse of the Tamdakht meteorite and notable analogs.
