K1 made only one flight. During that take-off, journey into space, and re-entry, the shuttle lost only 8 tiles.

Ummm, didnt a US space shuttle loose tiles during re-entry?

A good friend worked for Lockheed Martin way back when...he gave me a few tiles.
Interesting...looked and felt like 6 inch squares of Styrofoam insulation.
He said that he put a torch to one side as he held it in his palm...it glowed red and he didn't feel the heat.

Amazing photos...thanks for posting.

I'd love to have a couple for hot plate coasters. If anyone is over there, please grab a few. Black preferred. I'll pay shipping.
