Ceramic　aerogels　are　attractive　for　their　low　density,　high　porosity,　large　surface　area　as　well　as　various　applications　in　areas　of　thermal　insulation,　catalysis,　filtration,　and　lightweight　structural　materials.　Conventional　ceramic　aerogels　are　usually　assembled　by　oxides　nanoparticles.　Due　to　the　inefficient　neck-like　connections　between　the　nanoparticles　and　the　volume　shrinkage　at　elevated　temperatures,　ceramic　aerogels　fail　easily　caused　by　the　brittleness　and　high-temperature　structural　collapse.　To　overcome　these　drawbacks,　a　class　of　resilient　ceramic　aerogels　with　highly　porous　architectures　that　are　composed　of　one-　or　two-dimensional　nanostructures　has　been　prepared.　Benefiting　from　the　unique　microstructures　and/or　the　high-temperature　stability　of　their　building　blocks,　these　aerogels　exhibit　reversible　compressibility,　high-temperature　stability,　thermal　insulation,　and　various　functions.　In　this　review,　we　introduced　the　preparation　methods,　microstructures,　mechanical　properties,　high-temperature　stability,　thermal　insulation　and　various　functions　of　these　resilient　ceramic　aerogels.　We　have　also　discussed　the　relationships　between　their　microstructures　and　properties,　including　mechanical　properties　and　thermal　insulation　performance.　Finally,　perspectives　for　the　further　development　of　resilient　ceramic　aerogels　are　presented.　©　2020
