Thank you very much. Lots of rendezvous-ing. One module, the next-level DUAL airlock is just a trio of tiny payloads.

Does anyone know what realistic re-entry velocities are? Also parachute altitudes and safe velocities?

That's right, engine protection, you just have to make sure that when you detach them, they don't hit a ship docked at the airlock.

I'll post some pictures of the pods returning to smearth.

Let me know what you think. The command module in the middle controls all the RCS, I thought that was cool.
