1. A kit for use in constructing a device suitable for use in providing thermal protection to a payload, the kit comprising:
a first fabric sheet;
a second fabric sheet, the first fabric sheet and the second fabric sheet being joined to one another to form a plurality of pockets; and
first and second pluralities of temperature-control members, wherein the first and second pluralities of temperature-control members are constructed to be alternatively removably disposed in the same plurality of pockets, wherein each temperature-control member of the first plurality of temperature-control members comprises a plurality of pouches, each pouch of the first plurality of temperature-control members being a discrete sealed pouch, the pouches of the first plurality of temperature-control members containing a first phase-change material, wherein each temperature-control member of the second plurality of temperature-control members comprises a plurality of pouches, each pouch of the second plurality of temperature-control members being a discrete sealed pouch, the pouches of the second plurality of temperature-control members containing a second phase-change material, the first phase-change material and the second phase-change material having different phase-change temperatures.
