How NASA protects a space shuttle from overheating?
Composite materials are structured materials composed of two or more macroscopic phases. Application of composite materials range from structural elements such as steel reinforced concrete, to the thermally isulative tiles. Thermally insulative tile play a key and integral role in NASA’s space shuttle thermal protection system which is used to protect the surface of the shuttle from the heat f re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere one example is reinforced carbon-carbon (RCC), the lisht gray material which with stands re-entry temperatures up to 1510 C (2750 F) and protects the space shuttle’s wing leading edges and nose cap

Types of fiber reinforced composite materials:
- Continuous fiber- reinforced
- Discontinuous aligned fiber-reinforced.
- Discontinuous random-oriented fiber reinforced.2
