The return of a spacecraft from orbit to Earth In reentry, a great amount of heat is produced from the kinetic energy of the orbital motion, and since it is sufficient to melt the spacecraft, if the spacecraft is to land intact, it must be safely dissipated Heat-resistant shields of various types are used, and the reentry is at a shallow angle, to stretch out the process
This refers to an impulse returning to the same zone of heart muscle that it has just recently activated This can only happen if enough time has gone by that the zone is no longer refractory, or resistant to another stimulus It is now known that re-entry causes most ectopic beats, reciprocal rhythms, and most tachycardias

The return of a spacecraft from orbit to Earth, in which the kinetic energy of the orbital motion is converted into heat Since that heat is sufficient to melt the spacecraft, if the spacecraft is to land intact, the heat must be safely dissipated Heat-resistant shields of various types are used, and the reentry is at a shallow angle, to stretch out the process

The entry of persons into an affected (i e , contaminated or potentially contaminated) area following a release The terms controlled reentry, restricted reentry, occupational reentry, and emergency reentry refer to the temporary, short-term readmission of persons (primarily emergency workers) into a restricted zone for the purpose of performing specific tasks (such as monitoring teams) The terms uncontrolled reentry, unrestricted reentry, and general reentry are used in the context of uncontrolled, permanent reaccess referring to those provisions leading up to unlimited public access, reoccupation, or use of previously restricted zones after the hazards have been reduced to acceptable levels or have been declared "clean "
The event occurring when a spacecraft or other object comes back into the sensible atmosphere after being rocketed to higher altitudes; the action involved in this event
