I was playing orbiter as I usually do, playing today with the model rockets, and I noticed that one of them had huge drag, and when i reentered after crossing the USA (using and SRB as a booster) Thanks to the drag, all the slowing happened in the upper atmosphere and so there where no reentry flames. so if you deployed a huge ballute or something at reentry to make all the slowing happen in the upper atmosphere, maybe you could avoid the kind of thing that shuttle astronauts dread?
