From article , by Richard Lamb : For two, their method of re-entry will never work if returning from orbit. An admirable achievement nonetheless. Why? Because it was designed to be a sub-orbital ship... This particular *design* won't work, yes, but why not the "method" (i.e. moving surfaces to make for a "hands off" reentry)? if they can stand up to 3000 degree heat... Reentry from orbit is a vastly more difficult proposition. All to the speeds involved. |
