I find it amazing that they can come up with a 1 second launch window and have credible hopes of hitting a moving target 80 million miles away.

It's the equivalent of hitting a golf ball 421 miles and making a hole in one.

Not as incredible as some course designer expecting me to knock a ball in a 4 inch diameter hole 400 yds away in 4 strokes
