dropRadius

function dropRadius
entryArc.ts:265
dropRadius(arc: EntryArc, progress: number) → number

The radius the camera is at, progress of the way down.

Logarithmic in height, for the reason the surface arm's scrub and the orbit arm's ease are: the band from an orbit to eye height is six decades, and a linear schedule spends 99.9% of the drop above the altitude where terrain is drawn at all and then arrives in a frame. Eased at both ends so the release is not a lurch and the landing is not a stop. The height is measured from two meters under the touchdown radius, so the log has a floor to end on and the last frame lands exactly at touchdown.
