Mission: Survive re-entry and landing without a parachute, without an engine, and without lift (wings, etc.). How to win: If your kerbal is still alive and at rest on the surface, you've done it. Main Goal: get a kerbal back to surface alive. extraGoal1: Start by launching your craft into low kerbin orbit (this is harder than it sounds if you plan to leverage terminal velocity on your way back in). extraGoal2: Land a capsule this way (with a kerbal inside it). extraGoal3: Land without destruction of parts. Rules: stock parts. yes, you may use EVA jets. yes, you may ski down the side of a mountain. Will consider parts with fins (lift parts) if you can argue they are not gliders. NO GLIDERS.

This challenge was inspired by ihtoit's skydive challenge.
