NASA thermal tiles heated to 2,000C are such poor thermal conductors that they can still be handled with bare hands.

that's nuts, and nuts to let visitors pick them up if the flat sides will still burn their faces off. How long before some dufus picks it up by the side right after he says don't pick it up by the side?

I'd be shocked if NASA didn't make you sign a waiver before letting you handle their lava bricks.
