	Atmospheric reentry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Atmospheric reentry is the process by which vehicles that are outside the atmosphere of a planet can enter that atmosphere and reach the planetary surface intact.
		Vehicles that undergo this process include spacecraft from orbit, as well as suborbital ICBM reentry vehicles.
		During reentry, free stream air is compressed to high temperature and pressure by the entry vehicle's shock wave.

		STS-121 down safely I notice that the news people paid far more attention to reentry than they have in a long time.
		Space travel is never routine, and reentry is never to be taken as anything but one of the more dangerous parts of the mission.
		It is almost always true that significant documents referred to in declassified technical reports no longer exist (technical information costing many millions of dollars has simply vanished).

		It is likely that better decoys and countermeasures will be developed in the future-incorporating appropriately tailored corner-cube radar reflectors, equivalent masses, devices radiating the proper spectral infrared emissions, as well as large quantities of elements, such as chaff, to confuse and overload the U.S. system's discrimination sensors and algorithms.
		Drawing lessons from the past, McDonnell Aircraft-under contract to the Air Force in the 1960s-demonstrated a lift-to-drag (L/D) ratio of 4.0 maneuverable lifting reentry vehicle (MLRV).
		However, the Air Force discontinued maneuvering reentry vehicle work because it was not needed.

		[6] One type of warhead reportedly involved a maneuverable reentry vehicle known as "Igla" that changes altitude and direction to evade missile defenses.
		Media reports have speculated as many as 10, but more reentry vehicles increase weight and limit range.
		Whether the maneuverable reentry vehicle will be installed on all or only a few of the Topol-Ms remains to be seen.

		The EKIP Project: It is said that the Russians are working on a vehicle, in secret, that will send chills down the collective spines of Boeing and Air Bus.
		Vehicles that 'fly' slightly off the ground have been tested in Russia for years.
		At the time it was deployed it was the only maneuverable nuclear reentry vehicle in the world and may still be today.

	Evolution of the Space Shuttle
		In the 1950's and 1960's a variety of designs were developed by NASA and the U.S. Air Force for a maneuverable reentry vehicle.
		The Space Shuttle would marry rocket and airplane technologies together in a vehicle that would become the first high-tech transportation method to and from space.
		The vehicle would be more economical, be safer, and have a shorter development time.

		Author: Arkin, William M. LAST February an obscure and futuristic global weapon was presented--in concept--at the air force armament summit.
		The CAV concept is based on now abandoned advanced maneuverable reentry vehicle programs, which were the rage in the 1970s for the nuclear missile force.
		Boeing has taken the idea and increased the size to transform it into an intercontinental maneuvering vehicle able to evade ballistic missile defenses and deposit weapons within 1,000 meters of a target.

	Russia Tests Missile That Could Evade U.S. Defense (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Russian and U.S. military analysts said his cryptic description could mean that Russia has developed a "maneuverable reentry vehicle" — a technology under development for decades that could provide a rudimentary guidance system for intercontinental missiles and render them difficult or impossible to destroy.
		The U.S. defense system is designed to deploy a field of interceptors in Alaska and California that would fly into space to meet and destroy such a missile.
		"But if they had maneuvering reentry vehicles and were able to veer around the sky as they came down, that would be especially daunting for a missile defense system," Coyle said.

		After two days of high-profile military exercises, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the military had successfully tested a new strategic missile system, a development that analysts said could enable nuclear warheads to avoid U.S. defenses.
		Putin said the system allow "deep maneuvering" of Russia's long-range missiles, apparently a reference a maneuverable reentry vehicle.
		United Nations inspectors have found sophisticated uranium-enrichment machinery at an air force base outside Iran's capital, Tehran, according to U.S. and foreign sources with knowledge of the discovery.
