Browned Dragon after an hour or two at 2000-4000 F? Stell melts at 2800 F, not browns ;)
I don't think it's made of steel. I'm pretty sure the actual "sides" of the capsule don't reach 4000 F, just the bottom heat shield as it's the most exposed. It takes the brunt of it.
Yeah that is what they have told you. But have you done a calculation yourself?
Have you aside from regurgitating some melting point stats off Wikipedia?
Steel is usually too heavy for spacecraft. They usually use titanium alloys and other materials for their strength and low weight.
Titanium melts at 3200 F, not browns. What is that brown color + SpaceX logo anyways, paint :0. Paint browns, but not at 4000 F. At 4000 F paint evaporates instantly. Oh Boy.
