A number of unusual effects are presented that were observed on the TCSE test samples, front cover, and structural components. These include induced UV fluorescence in some materials, the migration and degradation of KRS-5 materials, atomic oxygen (AO), and contaminant texturing and discoloration, and meteoroid and debris impacts. These effects and their causes are discussed.
