<div dir="ltr">'Burst Kill' is essentially a countdown timer which
starts after the sonde starts to descent. Once the timer reaches
zero, the sonde shuts off.
<div>It looks like the default burst-kill time is <b>8.5 hours</b>.
That's how long we have to get the landing position of the
sonde after burst.</div>
