You can't possibly be eating all those pancakes.

I'm not. I'm storing them in my suit. For emergencies.

It would be a niche market. Very few of my customers are ever in danger of being eaten by an emu.

Ablative, or ablative protection -protection based on the evaporation, detachment and removal of protection particles from the surface to be protected. It is used to cover rocket engine nozzles and landers and in science fiction (for example Star Trek) -for the hulls of ships to protect against ray weapons.
