"No bones broken. No organs ruptured. Shame about the drowning
in gel." |

I was sure we had done "pointy thing into water instead of
parachute" here before, but I can't find it. A few similar ideas
though (ie: skydiving without a parachute). |
|
| |
Are we talking ranging radar and active control surfaces for
the reorientation from maximum to minimum cross sectional
area? |
|
| |
And I assume a well attached air supply for the recovery
from from the impact while being deep under water. |
|
| |
The more complicated, heavy, expensive, and otherwise impractical the better, just so long as the control surfaces won't slow the thing enough to be considered a parachute. |
