Imagine bonding that to pink board with epoxy. A gleaming gold hexayurt.

And this stuff:

"This Specialized nylon Ripstop material features an Aluminized coating on 
one side that gives the material a dull, reflective metallic sheen that can 
be seen for miles on a sunny day. This material was originally designed for 
hot air and advertising balloons."

"Reflective Ripstop
Great new quality! 1.9 oz. sq. yd. before coating 70 Denier.  This white 
nylon ripstop has a silver glass bead reflective surface applied to one 
side that will reflect even small amounts of light.  With truly amazing 
reflective properties, it is a must if being seen at night is important."


Ripstop nylon (of any kind) epoxy bonded to foamboard = indestructible and 
waterproof.
If you add reinforcing patches where needed...and really hit them with the 
epoxy, the Hexayurt could be bolted together at those points.

I'm not talking wetting out the nylon like doing dumb fiberglassing work. 
Use the epoxy as an adhesive. Use as reinforcement where necessary.
