I'm curious to know if anyone has investigated the heating and cooling tolerances of carbon fiber and what they might be. Particular repeated heating and cooling over the lifetime of the material. I noticed spaceship 1 was made of some sort of composites and lived through it's mach 3+ reentry. Does it expand like metals do? Break down?

thanks
