In Response To: Clever (ZackDark)


: The "parachuted rocket" to stabilize the tumble and the skycrane to
: slow down the whole system without incinerating the lil' dude were very
: clever ideas.

Thanks. Credit goes to NASA for the idea, and for having the brass balls to pull it off in the first place.

: One critic over canon, however, is that we see the M-Spec RU pretty much
: closed up, I mean, no cables dangling around. One solution is mentioning
: the release (through blasting bolts :D ) of the cables. The
: "parachuted rocket" releases right before the skycrane thrusters
: kick in and the skycrane right after landing the pilot (in that
: self-landing phase you mentioned).

Well, I figured that both stages would end with the cables being released. Support for the idea of the skycrane comes from the same seen, though, because Noble 6 had to get up and walk towards the camera to retrieve a gun.

: Great job, man. Not only on the unit itself, but on the text.

Thanks!
