Apollo 13's problem wasn't quite the same
By:ZackDark
Date: 11/25/13 6:04 pm
In Response To: Re: Noble Six's jump redux (Cody Miller)

: Did you watch Apollo 13? They put the problem quite nicely. Come in too steep
: and you burn up and die. Too shallow and you skip off the atmosphere like
: a stone. The window is small. Do you think a dude just leaping out is
: going to hit that window?

Yeah, the Apollos that went all the way over the to Moon were a bit faster at reentry than anything within geostationary orbit (even the actual passive geostationary orbit)...
