What is the temperature of the Sun (google for the answer)? What is the re-entry temperature of the Space Shuttle (google for the answer)? Why don’t you burn up at the reentry temperature of 17318.5K for this Mach 20 flow? Why do you think that the body should actually re-enter the Earth's atmosphere in the opposite direction. (ie.. blunt/flat surface first.)
