Terminal velocity

Hi Djnekkid. Re: terminal velocity - if parachute is [semi-]deployed - then it is only interesting near the surface as this is the amount of delta-V that has to be burned away if one is landing on the engines.

The table that is presently there is for parachute not deployed which means that it has significance for ascent - that is the optimal speed when launching to the orbit. Hope that makes it clear. [Snakeru]
