    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: This paper presents the results of a study of the penetration resistance of Type I Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) to meteoroid and orbital debris particles. Hypervelocity impact tests on MLI were performed and the collected data was compared to data and empirical equations developed for aluminum. The study results indicate that MLI can be an effective shield from meteoroids and orbital debris for short duration missions and for non-critical elements. However, long missions which require high levels of protection cannot rely on MLI without a thorough investigation of the overall system reliability.
