I AM THE LAW!
Fascist pig snowflake.
Birds aren't real confirmed.
The grimdark future is real.
What insanity compelled OP to place a comma after the word deeply?
Hiding the emergency release behind a panel should be illegal. These things are death traps.
With all this law-breaking, surely someone is going to jail? ...Right?
Look at all those beautiful pixels and crisp text. 10/10.
No, there isn't anything like that. Big heavy objects fall. Falling objects are moving fast when they hit the ground. Further details are irrelevant.
Are you absolutely sure that you've seen a coin in those vortex demos just stop? Coins falling over doesn't count, there's nothing like that in space. Otherwise, they are moving at quite a clip when they reach the bottom of the funnel.
The one possible exception is when you detach part of the mass. If your vehicle removes some mass and launches it, you can use the reaction force to slow down. This is what a rocket engine does, for example. (Note the propellant will still impact at very high speed, as evident from the plume of any rocket landing.) The higher the relative velocity of the reaction mass, the less you'll need to come to a complete stop. But at this point we are talking about a manmade vehicle, not a naturally occurring rock.
