I didn't know what ablator did, until i tried a orbit with an empty heat shield, which then promptly exploded upon reentry. Have tested this, and when re entering, you can rotate your command module, which dissipates the heat somehow, and slows the process of overheating.

Before hand: new to the game, and forum. Logged 10 hours, and wanted to share my experience. No experience beforehand To put it simply, I made fireworks for the residents back on kerbal. I like to play in sandbox, because I don't like having to deal with a tech tree, and I love to tinker around with different parts, and part combos As of now, I am now able to put a ship into an orbit reaching past the moon, provided I don't accidentally sling myself into orbit around the sun. Making good progress!
