OOPS: This doesn't look like good news for the Russian inflatable reentry vehicle demonstrator.

As an aside, something in the UPI article is a little confusing to me:

Demonstrator-2 is small in size -- the folded-up vehicle measures less than 3 feet in diameter making it the most compact space vehicle ever made.
Hello? Are we talking just size, or component density here?
