'''Glide''' is the final stage of [[Planetary Landings]]. After approaching the exclusion zone of a landable planet or moon in [[Orbital Cruise]], the [[Ships|ship]] will automatically disengage the [[Frame Shift Drive]], drop from Orbital Cruise, and begin an unpowered glide for the remainder of the descent. The glide maintains a constant speed of 2,500 meters per second. Gliding will automatically end, drop the ship to [[Normal Speed]], and engage [[Thrusters]] at an altitude of 3 kilometers.

Pitching too far up will end the glide early and transition the ship into Normal speed. Pitching too far down will result in an emergency drop, causing damage.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyPoaVRErE0 From orbit down to Europa], David Braben, YouTube</ref> Similarly, excessive yaw during Gliding will result in the pilot temporarily blacking out from the strain.

Glide will engage only if the entry angle is kept between -5 and -60 degrees while dropping out of Orbital Cruise, and only if the speed is sufficiently low, usually with the throttle inside or below the blue zone; lower speeds are preferable when attempting to land on bodies with low mass and gravity. Hitting the drop point too fast will result in an emergency drop.
