[i]Ground testing successfully recreated char loss in the arc jet facility using large-scale test panels of full-size Avcoat blocks. The recreated char loss has the same features as observed on the Artemis I heat shield. The team is currently synthesizing the test results together with the leading theory for root cause and are planning formal presentations to the necessary technical forums in preparation for a recommendation to the Orion Program Control Board for Artemis II in April/May timeframe. The recommendation will include Artemis II heat shield operational capabilities based on the latest thermal analysis work. An Independent Review Team effort planned for May 2024 will confirm the team’s recommendations to the program on the root cause, heat shield capability, and corrective actions going forward.[/i]
