Is that something I can look up on line? Google doesn't seem
helpful on this.

The guy is just know going through the oral defence, thesis won't be
published until he (hopefully) get an MSc granted, it'll take six months

I wonder if the water ingress has something to do with
increased permeability of the surface when water molecules
impact it at 600 + knots?

Gee, you think? ;-) I also wonder if it could be that in many cases
the stuff is in the solid state when it impacts.
