Abstract After a spaceflight, the planetary entry (a.k.a. reentry for entry into Earth’s atmosphere) of a spacecraft is subject to the same aerodynamic and physical laws and equations (see Eqs. (6.3.6) and (6.3.7)) as ascent. One might therefore infer that the circumstances of both situations are the same.
