You'd flunk out of class with these, and for the same reason I am asking; to be able to check your assumptions without staring at a page of magic numbers. As far as I can tell without reverse-solving each of your unlabeled variables, you are ignoring a full third of what your Aeronautics prof taught you about parachutes; aka you are plugging in the wrong diameter for the actual Curiosity chute.
