It is very difficult to meet people more stupid than NASA's frauds.
"It must be ice," said Dr Peter Smith, Phoenix's principal investigator, who is based at the University of Arizona, Tucson.
"These little clumps completely disappearing over the course of a few days - that is perfect evidence that it's ice," he said.

Your point would be valid, if the entire point of the vehicle was to punch through the atmosphere as fast as possible. But it's not, it's trying to slow down, not speed up or stay about the same.

My dear readers,
Originally posted by Big-Braininside the conical shell there is Phoenix lander. Then the center of gravity is around in the same place of the paper cone.
Originally posted by Big-BrainRemember that heat shield is made by lightest cork. Instead in the opposite side there is a heavy device to join the shell to the rocket.

And when it has reached a velocity that would overcome the low, heavy center of gravity, it releases the parachute, which causes drag on the cone. This causes the cone to want to stay on top.
