Anyone remember the Man Out Of Space Easiest (MOOSE) project? As I
recall, this was a 60s effort to develop a reentry vehicle usable by
individuals. It comprised a spacesuit, something to generate a foam
heatshield (inflated in the fashion of a life vest), a retro pack, and a
parachute. Seems to me it would be useful for certain space shuttle
emergencies.
