That's what was bad about the Shuttle tiles, wasn't it? That each piece was basically custom made for its exact position on the vehicle? I wonder how difficult it is to mass-produce specific tiles, they're going to need to in order to coat as many Starships as Elon talks about sending up.

Redirect an asteroid onto a major US city. Has to be in America or people will stop caring after a day. Casualties in the 6-7 digit range, followed by media blitz hyping up any rock that passes within half an AU and terrorizing the public with threats of more coming.

Present the problem, make people fear the problem, present the solution (which you just happen to have).
