Re-Entry

Slow Re-entry is speed 13, which is about 5000 kph, or over Mach 4. No unstreamlined ship should be able to go that fast without breaking up. Hence my rules on break-up. . .
Yeah. The problem there is that the 'slow re-entry' really shouldn't be that fast. You're talking about 8 hours to drop around 200 km. If it really was 5000 kph that would mean you traveled about 40,000 km which would be a glide slope of about .28 degrees, which is absurdly shallow.
