A self-contained hardened recorder would be nice. But is it even feasible to make one that can survive something like this--breakup of the vehicle at 12,000 mph and 207,000 feet, the G-forces involved in deceleration, the heat of re-entry, and then that sudden stop at the bottom as it hits the ground?

If anybody can do it, our scientists and engineers can, I guess.

Yes moose, it can be done. No doubt in my mind.
I am looking forward to the details.

The hardest part will be dealing with the sudden stop.
But the small size makes it doable.
