Silly little OXP as a tribute to the bravery of both Nasa and Felix Baumgartner:
A Space suit you can dive out of the space station from to the Planet below (planetfall oxp required)
<naughty question>Will you be sentenced to 1500Cr for assault after landing?</naughty question>

Agreed, This needs to be done properly with hyperdrive etc disabled, but I think this oxp proves the concept. It really does how how big the ships etc are (for example the "far" views are the same distance from the model as the standard on on the MvM Veloce)
Hmm, if you can't climb out of the gravity well, how will you ever leave the planet? Or should I include Yves Rossy in the tribute and have wings and jets...
