 Aerobraking   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
A related concept sometimes used in a humorous context is "lithobraking," the use of friction with a planetary crust to slow a spacecraft.
This is perhaps better known as "impacting" or "crashing." However, it is not entirely without serious application; many landers destined for airless bodies such as Earth's Moon have employed lithobraking to various degrees and with some success.
Many proposed probes to small asteroids or comets include penetrators intended to impact at high speed.

The word was probably coined as a whimsical adaption of aerobraking, which is the process of slowing a space vehicle by the use of friction against a planet 's celestial body atmosphere.
Lithos is a Greek language word meaning "rock" or "stone." Preparations for lithobraking involve protecting the probe with sufficient cushioning to withstand an impact with the surface and come to rest undamaged.
In the case of bodies with thick enough of an atmospheres (e.g., Mars (planet)), lithobraking is typically accompanied by the use of heat shield s and parachute s to reduce the speed prior to impact.

 So... I want to jump into orbit - Page 3 - RPGnet Forums
A body in orbit is following an elliptical trajectory focused on the planet's center of mass.
You must maneuver at least a little bit after launch, or you will be lithobraking (aka "crashing").
Of course, in some cases this may not be a problem (if you have a superhuman powerful enough to make suborbital leaps several hundred km up, in order to whack passing satellites and the like, said superhuman may very well also be tough enough to walk away from combined aero/lithobraking).

 Going to Mars?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The periapsis of this inbound trajectory is set first at Mars' surface and second, at aerobraking altitude in Mars' atmosphere (taken to be 50 km) and the periapses velocities calculated.
Column 5 gives the ∆v needed to arrive at Mars' surface without lithobraking.
Column 6 gives the ∆v needed to achieve a circular Low Mars Orbit.

 New Horizons Pluto mission - they need a lander - Forums powered by UBBThreads™
Yeh deceleration from 20000 km/h to 0 in 1 second - that would be fun..
No-ones figured out how to do useful lithobraking yet - most of the sort of delicate stuff (hi-gain antenea, RTGs..) needed could not survive such an impact.
Orbital insertion/landing for a very very distant airless body like Pluto is a headache - you have to go there fast to do the mission in any decent length of time, and yet you need to decelerate quite fast once there - especially if its a body with a small gravity well, like Pluto..

 Ring Spokes Appearing? - Unmanned Spaceflight.com
I think I can surmise what Dr Porco is thinking (in part at least) with regard to a soft landing on Pan.
A soft landing on any of the bigger moons would be pretty much impossible, as their gravity wells have got to be deep enough to turn a landing into a lithobraking (cryobraking?), barring some fancy manoeuvring from Cassini.
More importantly, getting in close to Pan would give us some incredible shots of the rings, and, once close enough to Pan's orbital speed, we'd almost certainly get the Holy Grail -- individually resolved ring particles, possibly moving slowly enough across the field of view to make following their motion and rotation feasible.

 History of the Pentagon War universe
Haul them over to the planet you want to attack and then de-orbit them so that they land on the military base (or city) of your choosing.
Like real meteor strikes, these rocks will plow deeply into the ground before lithobraking to a stop.
Unlike ordinary meteor strikes, the force of the impact will destroy the magnetic bottle inside the rock, releasing all the antiprotons to react after the rock has plowed some distance down into the ground.
