No, it's the clear orange tape you see wrapping up electronics exposed to heat some times. Polymide plastic film.

- cyberferret 8y agoThanks for the clarification. I wonder if it is tape they have on board specifically for this kind of thing, or whether they just repurposed tape used for insulating electrical work on the ISS?
- gh02t 8y agoProbably kind of both. Kapton tape is extremely tough and useful for a lot of things. It's pretty common in space applications, they probably had it around for a variety of uses.
